For her sculpture series Nomad Patterns, artist Livia Marin’s ceramic cups and kettles melt into puddles of porcelain while surprisingly retaining their original printed designs. The elaborate faux Chinese motifs of willows, birds and pagodas float out into a glossy ceramic pool still in perfect detail.

Interested in the issues of brokenness and recuperation, Marin’s contrived ceramics question the strength of the relationships we establish with the everyday material objects that we use so habitually. Normally once something is broken, it either stops being used or is thrown away, but every so often a damaged object may linger if the owner feels particularly attached or sentimental. (Source)

“What’s everyone looking at??”

So, there has been a green cat walking around the streets of Varna, Bulgaria this week. Many believed that it must’ve been the work of some awful vandals and started a Facebook page to find them… However, it was determined the cat turned himself green when he slept in some left over synthetic green paint and licked himself. People have been trying to catch this handsome fellow so they can clean him off but so far, have been unsuccessful. Apparently, this happened last year too so people don’t think it’s poisonous.
He and his friend sure don’t seem to mind but hopefully he’ll get his bath soon!
