“The title is inspired by the old proverb ‘the eyes are the windows of the soul’ and reflects the artist’s interest in the duality of one’s personality, one visible to everyone, the other vast and deep into one’s consciousness both entwined by a mystical spark,” a statement on her new work says says. “Her art is rooted in a need to process the world, society and life’s experiences and her sculptures are a vivid statement of the artist’s research into what connects us with the veil that separates us from the spirit realms.”

The UK based painter, who lives and works in London, describes his work as a combination of the "carefree and painstaking", images of crudely built subjects made of a strange selection of items- modelling clay, office tape, flowers, Christmas lights, and whatever else is immediately available to him- which he then renders in incredibly meticulous detail.
What makes some of us feel repulsed may be a thing of a beauty to others. That seems to be the case with Buenos Aires based studio and artist collective Six & Five's latest work.

Inspired by oceanic organisms, the Morbo are all that remain of a recently-occurred apocalypse, discovered on toxic beaches during low tide. They are strangely alluring in their hyperrealism.
