    Impossible Objects by Giuseppe Colarusso



    An artist has created series of wacky images turning everyday items into hilarious and all but impossible to use objects.

    [Karma] by Do-Ho Suh



    [Do-Ho Suh addresses issues of identity, memory, and relationships. Son of the famous Korean ink-painter Suh Se-Ok, Do-Ho Suh is a leading figure in the transnational avant-garde generation of Korean artists who came of age in the late 1990s, and his work eloquently represents a dual consciousness between East and West].
