Francois Robert spent hundreds of hours to create this artwork. He purchased a human skeleton in the mid-90’s, during an auction from an old school and he called this work Stop the violence.

Japanese artist Fumie Sasabuchi uses the image and idea of death to explore body and its surface, creating a series of hybrid images in which promotional aesthetic is fused with material naturalistic anatomical study.

“We do not want merely to see beauty, though, God knows, even that is bounty enough.  We want something else which can hardly be put into words–to be united with the beauty we see, to pass into it, to receive it into ourselves, to bathe in it, to become part of it.” – C.S. Lewis.

In Kate’s work this romantic ideal of union with the natural world conflicts with our contemporary impact on the environment.  Her pieces are in part responses to environmental stressors including climate change, toxic pollution, and gm crops.  They also borrow from myth, art history, figures of speech and other cultural touchstones.

Hoxton-based art collective Hubbawelcome have taken their off-the-wall brand of humour from street art to the shelves of Scribbler stores, with their limited run of “I love you so much” Valentine’s Day greeting cards.
The cards feature earnest looking young chaps, professing their love for one another in funny, unique and rather disturbing ways. Some of which include; making clothing from a loved one’s pubic hair and preserving farts in Tupperware containers.
The cards are available at Scribbler stores across the UK from February.
