Who would have thought scrap bike parts would make cool light sculptures? Well, it turns out that Joe O’Connell and Blessing Hancock are the perfect duo to explore this medium in a public space. The space is located under a freeway overpass that most likely wasn’t a cherished part of the neighborhood. Their artwork works to transform “a forgotten space into one that connects the community.”

Fashion icon isn’t the first thing that comes to mind when thinking Keith Haring. After watching this new documentary about him I noticed how fly his gear was. Here are some pictures to support the claim that he was also a fashion icon on top of being the quintessential 80′s artist.

Just got word that our homie Danijel Stankovic went pro on Swedish sock brand Melowe. I’ve never heard of a pro sock but it must be reserved for either the dudes with the most ridiculous foot stank (you like how I did that?) or the stupidest pop. As far as I know, Danijel changes into a brand new pair of Nike SB’s every day so the former we can eliminate. Check his intro footy here and note the signature korvlover socks he’s dropped in there, not the first time we’ve seen the hotdog love being flashed by one of his sponsors, previously it was the stickers plastered all over Berlin this winter from Danijel’s longtime sponsor WeSC.

Hyuro is a force of nature and right now she’s in Copenhagen and in the midst of creating one of the longest public artworks in the world. The work is called “In/between” and it’s a poetic, unique and beautiful journey that exploits the entire length of the 271 metre long wall in Ørestad, Copenhagen. If that wasn’t enough she also opens her first solo exhibition in this neck of the world a few days after she finishes this massive public piece. Read more in the attached press release. -Henrik Haven

Bohyun Yoon has lived and worked in Korea, Japan and the U.S. In this installation work he casts light on miniature wax body parts that dangle freely. When illuminated these fragmentations create shadows that illustrate figures in intimate positions. In his words, “I cut, I extend, I distort, I reconstruct, and I fragment the body to create a chaotic image of a human.”

Sriracha is the spicy red nectar of the Gods that makes everything you put it on taste better. I made this feeble attempt to revolutionize the spice world with the application of a mister. Unfortunately it didn’t work, but it still looks amazing.

They shaped 5 boards together with some of the local heroes, and donated them to the club house, where all the members can use them anytime. The boards are specifically designed to meet the harsh conditions in Cold Hawaii where “the water can be lumpy with ice.” Check out the first video in a series of three they created.
