The Bank Robber

This is what I wish life was like - placid excitement in sepia - with tap dancing. When he lets her fall by his puppet strings it makes my heart burn.

stabbing the president

This is the second Arthur Ganson in a row, but it is well deserved - the slowly slowly creeping cogs, tick tick tick.....IN YOUR FACE MISTER PRESIDENT.

bash the cat

This cat being bashed in the head is kinetic, powered by cogs and turning and electricity and the magic that is.......art. Check out Arthur Ganson, his machines and videos are epic.

Tell me this, would you rather be the cat or the armchair?

On the theme of fear

This has been a favourite short of mine for a while now, the most menacing pencil. The cracked earth and his rubbery, unflinching smile - all bound up to the horror of the 'deep south' - thinking Hills Have Eyes through to True Blood. Whatever way you look, the pencil is evil and something mysterious is taking our children.

Metal Heads

So we should all wear metal headdresses, like disco warriors heading in to battle. They shine, they clink and they weigh down any ideas that shouldn't take flight.



I wore this belt as a headdress, and won 4 of the 8 raffle prizes. This girl not only has a metal headdress, but also a Robyn. She sings of Lord of the Flies and we relate.
