The post Alexis Mata’s Glitched Landscape Paintings Explore Human Perception of Reality appeared first on MagazineBlogger.
]]>Mata’s works show detailed desert landscapes featuring rocks, dunes, and various shapes and sizes of cacti that are suddenly distorted or stretched into unrecognizable streams of color.
According to the artist, he aims to explore the human perception of reality and the way our mind plays tricks on us when we watch something for too long.
“The paintings are all about the glitch and the error, when your eyes look too long at the same thing your mind makes the change” Mata shares.
Mata collaborates with artificial intelligence to create his artworks. He makes notes of his experiences related to landscapes and then uses AI software to generate images based on them. Lastly, he reworks and edits these images and then uses them as a reference for his paintings.
“I meticulously document dreams, sensations, and experiences related to landscapes, either in the form of texts, ideas, poems, haikus, photographs, drawings, etc. Once the information has been compiled, I generate a dialogue with the artificial intelligence in which I seek to share and explain situations and self-referential experiences in a limited way,” Mata explains on his website.

]]>Kaido and his human Matt “Matty” Fernandez frequently take bike rides across their native New York City. While riding the bike, they occasionally encounter ambulances, fire trucks, and police vehicles trying to navigate congested streets.
Once Kaido, who is usually nestled in a bike chair or a backpack on Matty’s back, hears the sirens, he immediately starts howling. Matty refers to this type of sound as “awoo,” which lets others know that they should pay attention and let the emergency vehicles pass.

]]>Gore spent years working as a mental health therapist, career coach, and university instructor before discovering his passion for art. He was in his late 30s when he stumbled upon a social media challenge to share a 1”x1” sketch every day for a month, and he decided to keep going even after the challenge was over.
“Often drawing inside only an inch or two, I’m inspired by the challenge to create more while consuming less. My miniature art demonstrates how constraints can enhance creativity while encouraging a more sustainable experience for the earth, the artist, and art lovers alike,” he told Strathmore Artist Papers.
Gore embraced the beauty of lifelong learning, honing his skills at the breakfast table, crafting his tiny drawings with nothing but 0.15mm pen nib and tiny canvases. Gore’s versatility is as impressive as his attention to detail, and we’ve seen him celebrate the beauty of nature through his body of work, while also putting a miniature twist on some of his favorite paintings.

]]>For several years now, Shrimali and Bird have been amazing social media users and art enthusiasts with their well-crafted miniature paper artworks. Their works are mostly inspired by birds and animals, with artists striving to redefine paper as a material and use it to educate people about our planet’s biodiversity through art.
The new series, “Parrot Project,” features paper miniatures of 40 different species of parrots. Each miniature is meticulously cut by hand and painted, resulting in a realistic depiction of these fascinating birds.
According to Shrimali and Bird, the goal of the “Parrot Project” was both to show their beauty and help people realize how important they are.
“We want our audience to not just appreciate the beauty of this wonderful species but also understand its importance in nature,” the duo stated.
Shrimali and Bird made these parrot miniatures available for sale on The Paper Ark website while adding a good cause component. They will donate 10% of each sale to organizations that focus on parrot conservation.

]]>Based in Rio de Janeiro, Pérolas & Amor sells exclusive bead bags and accessories, and the name of this brand perfectly captures its spirit since it can be translated as Pearls & Love. They use all sorts of different beads to bring their bags to life, and they became a huge sensation on social media thanks to their signature designs made from retro plastic beads.
Their nostalgic look gives Pérolas & Amor’s bags a unique vibe, making it seem like they’ve been made of countless pixels. A lot of attention goes into the making of each bag, and it takes hundreds of plastic beads to bring them to life.
In addition to their pixelated look, there’s another thing that Pérolas & Amor’s bags have in common. Many of them are inspired by popular culture and pay homage to the popular cartoons we all know and love, from Hello Kitty and SpongeBob SquarePants to Minions and Lilo & Stitch.

]]>Recently, The Pokémon Company decided to take an unexpected route and team up with chef Natsuko Shoji, the owner of Tokyo’s famous été. Shoji was tasked with making a new artwork for Evee card, becoming the first chef in the world to do so.
Shoji’s illustration was inspired by a tart desert she created, which consists of hexagon-shaped fruit fitted together for an aesthetically pleasing experience. In her illustration, Evee appears as Stellar Tera-type Pokémon against a backdrop of the tart desert.
“This is the first moment in the history of Pokémon that a chef has created art for Pokémon cards,” Shoji shared about the collaboration. “I believe that Japanese ingredients themselves are world-class art and as beautiful as jewelry. Through this tie-up, I feel that its brilliance has been further enhanced.”
Shoji-designed Evee card will be part of the upcoming Pokémon Trading Card Game expansion titled Scarlet & Violet—Prismatic Evolutions. The expansion will be released worldwide in January 2025.

]]>Lee recently organized a book signing event for her first-ever book titled Who Took My Stuff at a bookstore in Corona, California. She was eager to promote her work and meet with fellow book lovers, but there was only one issue: no one showed up despite her sitting there for hours.
One of the bookstore workers recorded the video of Lee waiting for someone to approach her and posted it on TikTok.
“i literally hate this shift. we have an author today. it’s her first book and nobody has gone up to her. I have to watch this for 5 hrs. my heart is breaking,” the staffer wrote added in the video that received more than 10 million views.

]]>Tamagotchi was a big hit in the late 1990s and early 2000s. Coming in the size of a keychain, the toy allowed the players to select a wide range of digital pets that they needed to “feed” and “entertain” regularly if they wanted to keep them happy and healthy.
Now, KFC has decided to treat its customers with a dash of nostalgia by releasing a Tamagotchi toy named “Eduardochi.” It comes as a chicken drumstick-shaped keychain and allows players to choose between 10 different chicken drumstick virtual pets. Once they select their preferred design, the players need to take care of Eduardochi’s and increase its crispiness level by feeding it, sending it to school, and cleaning after it, among other things.
At the moment, Eduardochi is only available in Spain, where customers can pick it up at a price of 3.99 euros ($4.19) when purchasing at least one menu item. If you really want one but don’t have a trip to Spain planned anytime soon, you can always turn to eBay, where they are selling from $30 to $100.
“Here comes Eduardochi! Your virtual fried friend. Take care of them, bath them, feed them, take them to the doctor, make them dodge forks (?), make them earn money, buy them a sword (it doesn’t do anything, but it’s pretty cool), play frisbee, ignore them, watch as they become gradually depressed, put a cowboy hat on them. It’s Eduardochi!” the description on Eduardochi’s package states.
