Eris Yo
Chinese photographer Eris Yo is gentle + vicious at the same time. She’s quietly politcal. Free + confined. Her portfolio offers a first hand look into a place that’s been stripped down to nearly nothing + the people that somehow make it hospitable + habitable.
Chris Silas Neal
Chris Silas Neal has a great portfolio of mostly editorial illustration but he’s also hiding a nice collection of personal drawings in there which are intriguing in a distinctly different way than his professional work. Both are great but where his client work has a certain calm about it, his sketchbooks contain some subversive unease. [...]
Mos Def-The Tournament (unreleased)
OK, so this isn’t exactly breaking news but I just came across a new unreleased Mos Def joint. The Tournament is a nasty track that fell to the cutting room floor during recording of The Ecstatic. Sadat X used that same Godfather sample back on Experience and Education + I’ve loved it ever since. Mighty [...]
Jonathan Josefsson
Swedish illustrator + street artist Jonathan Josefsson has a pretty crazy collection of these abstract, geode-lookin’ handmade rugs in his portfolio. Random? Yep. Awesome? Yep. Want? Yep.
Bandito Design Co.
Stellar design work from Ohio’s always excellent Bandito Design Co. All of their work is available from their shop for super cheap. The 3rd one down is only $7.50!
Brett Wilkinson
Informed as much by vibrant color ways as it is by geometric patterns, designer Brett Wilkinson has a portfolio that’s like a birthday present for your eyes. Infinitely better than a pair of socks.
Matea Jocic
Matea Jocic has kind of an amazing website. I was fooled into thinking it was just a photography portfolio at first. But flip through the whole thing + you’ll collage + design hidden between the photos, video + enough social commentary to warrant including “social commentary” in a list about a photographers portfolio.
The thing I [...]
Jack Teagle
Jack Teagle is a talented artist in a lot of respects. He’s done work for Anorak, record covers + children’s books. I like it all. But most of all, I love his comics. They are god damn hysterical + I’ve been wishing he would run a regular series for a while now. You know what? Let’s [...]
Benedetta Falugi
Reader submitted photography from the wonderful Benedetta Falugi. Benedetta’s work has a really pretty, dreamy quality to it that, combined with her knack for making photos that look like stills from point-of-view camera work in film, makes her portfolio easy to get lost in for a while.
Plus, at least 57 of these are dying to [...]
