Laces Out Studios promises to deliver on thing: ‘art for your sole’, and considering the fact that they specialize in custom painted shoes, their promise is a rather clever one. With Vans as a canvas, the artists at Laces Out are able to create wearable creations that are hand painted; no sharpies or airbrushing. Just paint. Read more Hand-Paints Vans Sneakers
A massive nuclear submarine lurks nearby, floating silently as it stealthily watches the massive oceans below. Wait… did we say below? A talented Russian Photoshop-er going by the name Tebe Interesno (“are you interested?”) has been whipping up some highly interesting photo manipulations, often involving the space programs of the US and former USSR. We see the Space Shuttle riding a broom into orbit (read that how you like), a long necked dinosaur showing up behind an astronaut on the moon (hoaxers rejoice!), and a ghost-like creature giving some much needed water to a dry part of the planet.

The essence of what exactly Zardonic sounds like it’s expressed by this simple description: Skrillex meets Slayer. But, the Bass Metal of Zardonic it’s much more then a simple mixture of genres and sounds or the sonic expression of pure aggression. Zardonic is the voice of a new generation tired of labels, sick of boxes, a generation which will bring down all the walls and borders build up by the previous generations. And – honestly – there is no easy or smooth way to doing it, but being loud and brutal. Zardonic it’s at the top of this game and the blending of metal heaviness with the massive wall of sound of modern and aggressive electronic music never came together so well before.
Antihero will rock your world and leave you breathless while Zardonic it’s the prototype of the perfect antihoro. Read more Zardonic – Antihero (2015)

Alex Solis is a Chicago-based artist, that we have profiled before, namely his Inkteraction series. He is an illustrator known for creating clever cartoons, like those in his collection, “Famous Chunkies”, where he takes beloved storybook and cartoon characters, superheroes, and video game characters and depicts them as morbidly obese. His reasoning behind this collection is to raise awareness about unhealthy eating habits. This work is a unique interpretation of a growing health problem. As always, Solis retains the cleverness, detail, and poignancy as viewed in his other work. Read more Who’s fat?!
