“Light Breakfast” by David Sykes is awesome is so many ways, and I especially love the color palette. Click through to his site to view the high-resolution version.

Sharon Louden’s installation “The Dean Field” is stunning. A glass and fiber optics piece acts as a field of light and chandelier that spans the 400-square-foot room, creating a landscape on the ceiling.

Who wants one of these in their home? Me, please!

Resa Blatman creates beautiful and detailed cut-edge paintings, where the ornate cut edges become the painting’s frame. Before even beginning the painting, Resa spends a few months designing the edges of the panels on her computer. I would just love to see one of these in person.

Particolare by Giovanni Anselmo is currently exhibiting at the Marian Goodman Gallery in Paris. Two projectors project the word Particolare — one toward the wall and one toward the crowd, where exhibit attendees will meet the bright light. The additional pieces in the exhibition are directional. The hand indicates a direction to the spectator, while the other pieces such as “North” and “East” offer specific directional instructions. The magnetic needles embedded in granite is entitled “Direction.”

“Realize that reality can be understood as the sum of its individual components, but never captured in its infinite totality” is the essential message of Particolare.

The sculpture is the result of a road accident in Hackney London in May 2009 — a car crashed into the steel railings; artist Michael Croft doesn’t know what happened, but says he isn’t sure he wants to. The work is about life, death, speed, nihilism, fate, technology.

He got the rails mirror-polished and they are now installed at Nervosi Gallery in London. The gallery is part of an art/design studio complex in London called Annexed Industry.

Amanda Elise Bowles creates art out of oil, vinyl and latex tubing. Amazing, right?
