Картины из старых аудио кассет. ФОТО
Художница из США Эрика Ирис Симмонс (Erika Iris Simmons) изветсная также под псевдонимом iri5, создаёт невероятно талантливые работы используя при этом ауди и видео плёнки.
На своём официальном сайте www.iri5.com, она признаётся что специально нигде не училась и является самоучкой. Эрике 26 лет и в 2006 году она закончила Вашингтонский университет в Сент-Луисе по специальности «русский язык».
Ее работы отличаются уникальным и инновационным стилем, ориентированным на утилизации найденных материалов, таких, как старые кассеты, видеокассеты и подержанные книги. Эти материалы являются отличным выбором для широкого круга проектов и целей. Эрика Ирис Симонс была также показана в газетах и журналах по всему миру.
Прекрасные произведения из старых кассет
Did some work last year for Jung v. Matt am Neckar (German ad agency)… this was a promo for a radio station. I sculpted the cassette into designs by their art director and then sent the tape sculptures to the agency where they were photographed and made über nice-looking.

photographs when compared to what a was using – a Canon powershot! Much

About the designer
Erika Iris Simmons (26) is a self-taught artist from Georgia. She graduated from Washington University in St. Louis, 2006, with a degree in Russian. She tries to express an idea, through the arrangement of very common things, with the hope that some messages will be conveyed without words. She loves nostalgia of the archaic and hopes that not everything which has outlived its use goes to waste.

Fernando Valenzuela
And
something different for a change: "Fernando Valenzuela made entirely
out of the innards of a single baseball… A few weeks ago I posted on my
website a wishlist of weird materials that I wanted for future
projects, one of which was ‘a baseball that had actually been used in a
game.’”
