Daniel Arsham.
Some people have far too much talent. It hardly seems fair, doesn’t it? Just take a look at this amazing work by Daniel Arsham for example. Truly remarkable. And nothing is what it seems. A cloud of balloons is scaled out of proportion, smooth walls are stretched like a curtain, solid cubes appear to be eaten away like soft cheese.
Daniel was born in 1980 in Cleveland Ohio and lives and works in New York and Miami. This young artist has exhibited in a number of solo and group shows in the US and Europe. He also has works in public collections such as a project for Dior Homme in Los Angeles, Museum of Contemporary Art in Miami, and The Four Seasons Miami Collection.
In 2007, Daniel partnered up with an architect, Daniel Arsham, to establishSnarkitecture. Snarkitecture is a collaborative practice operating at the intersection of art and architecture, which aims to make architecture perform the unexpected. Last year they completed a highly publicised Richard Chai retail installation in New York, featuring white architectural foam cut by hand to produce erosions and extensions of the sculpted walls and ceilings. See more about the project right here. Also, there is a great article about these guys in the lastes FRAME – check it out.
