Annie Vought clearly has a thing for the handwritten letter. She believes it reveals so much more about a person than our electronic communications. Penmanship, spacing, spelling all leave behind hints as to their author. By hand cutting these letters she creates not just an artifact but a sculpture - and really, have you ever seen handwriting look quite so beautiful?
So lovely.

Arnaud Lapierre’s “Ring” is an instillation located at the Vendome Square in Paris. It is made of stacked blocks of mirrors, in collaboration with Audi. The mirrors create a dynamic space that continually changes according to its surroundings.
Literally going through the looking glass. Love this concept.

The theme of Japaneses artist Nobuhiro Nakanishi work is “the physical that permeates into the art piece.” Laser print mounted with plexiglass acrylic and layered in a way that it all come up as some intriguing sculpture installations. ” In a foggy landscape, we no longer see what we are usually able to see – the distance to the traffic light, the silhouette of the trees, the slope of the ground. Silhouettes, distance and horizontal sense all become vague. When we perceive this vagueness, the water inside the retina and skin dissolve outwardly toward the infinite space of the body surface.
The landscape continues to flow, withholding us from grasping anything solid. By capturing spatial change and the infinite flow of time, I strive to produce art that creates movement between the artwork itself and the viewer’s experience of the artwork.

The activism revolved around the case of Trayvon Martin has shown how public opinion and their forums for opinion have been influenced by the power of social media. Many not only have personal and emotional responses, but have also utilized creative outlets for these responses. From writing sincere words to creating music and art, people have chosen to voice their opinions not only physically but visually as well. Above are a few examples of different artists and their visual voices.
