The Aspiral Clock

aspiral clockThis is a new type of clock called The Aspiral Clock. The Aspiral principle is simple, instead of a dial, a spiral and instead of hands, a ball. The spiral face turns slowly over a twelve hour period with a ball resting on the spiral ledge. When the clock reaches the final twelfth hour it drops through a hole to start all over again. That is a gorgeous idea. Very nice.

It is made in London and launched at the end of last year

Robert Bradford and his toy stories

Robert-Bradford-Foo Foo

Foo Foo

Undoubtedly, Robert Bradford likes toys, at least he is using them to construct his sculptures that we can see recently. His new creations are full of colour, irony and positive energy and seem to have a big success all over the world. His sculptures are inspired by the idea of constantly changing angle of view we have on our lives, and in the same way he tries to change the way we look at toys and waste material, by giving the a new meaning and new life. Robert Bradford lives in Cornwall, UK and he is very much famous for the creation of a giant bee sculpture at Eden Project. Hope, you enjoy his work as much as we do.

Maurizio Anzeri

Anzeri works with discarded portraits which he brings them back into existence with exquisite embroidered embellishments. A celebration of forgotten lives, his work transforms a straight portrait into a three-dimensional object with an intense psychological dimension. Anzeri graduated with an MA in Fine Art (Sculpture) in 2005. He was selected as one of the top 100 young emerging artists, and was one of 30 artists shortlisted for the 2008 Sovereign European Art Prize.
