Longoland is the place where strange creatures inhabit. As artist Joshua Ben Longo states: “I give life to inanimate objects. I strive to get strong reactions through gesture and character. It is a process of two and three dimensionally sketching and a slow and intuitive exploration of material and form. More recently I have been exploring abstract narratives, rituals and their social context, and my early childhood perception of superheroes.” The artist has participated in numerous exhibitions and his original work has been showcased in various publications. He currently teaches three dimensional design at Pratt Institute.
How colorful and cool and huggable I’m sure! Jennifer Strunge is the crafter of Cotton Monsters and here is some info she gives about her soft critters:
“Each Cotton Monster is a little (or big) work of art made from recycled clothing and linens without a pattern, so no two will ever be exactly alike. In fact I make an attempt to make each cotton monster as different as possible, carefully picking the materials that go into making each one and intuitively sewing all their parts. Though much care is taken in making each unique creature sturdy, Cotton Monsters should be considered soft sculptures intended for adults, not toys! I am just an artist making art that I love to make; I could not possibly keep up with the testing and standards of toy companies.” In Utilitarian Franchise one can discover a fantastic collection of silk screened, handmade pillow covers depicting original artwork! I particularly love the old/modern touch of these gorgeous monochrome designs. Imagine these displayed in your living room … would certainly add an arty touch to your space! Since I am a genuine pillow maniac I couldn’t resist presenting these adorable owl creations by Fong’s Studio. Cute little creatures handmade using cotton felt. Look at these patterned fabrics!
Perfect for hugs and decorating your sofa of course! What caught my attention while browsing Lucy Blaire’s Creations etsy shop, was her beautifully designed stuffed animals! Using amazing fabrics, vintage buttons, original embroidering and her sharp designer eye, she creates handmade collectibles. Mixing and matching fabrics, Irini Spinou created an absolutely hyper cool men scarves collection. Very urban, very original, very pleasing to my eyes! Don’t forget to take a look at Irini’s colorful world and discover your next favorite accessory. Trust her stylistic tips, she knows better! Jessamyn Sommers the talented crafter behind Homespun Ireland creates beautiful vintage cushions and other objects inspired by the Irish traditional and country life. Eyecatching embellishments, antique buttons, lace, cotton prints and even paper is used for the synthesis of her artwork. The natural and romantic touch in her creations sweeps me away. |
