Jean Shin.

I happened across artist Jean Shin today and, I fell in love with quite a few of her art installations. I'm really more of a 'classic' art lover as opposed to modern art, if you know what I mean but, the way that Jean takes completely UNartistic articles and transforms them into things of amazement and wonder should appeal to anyone who enjoys any sort of quirkiness the way I do!

There are a slew of works to view on her site, linked above but, a few favorites of mine are:

TEXTile; comprised of 22,528 recycled computer keycaps and 192 custom keycaps, fabric, with a customized active keyboard & interactive software:


Soundwave; Comprised of melted records on wooden armature:


Chemical Balance II; Comprised of Prescription bottles, mirror and epoxy:

Be sure to go see what else she's created!
