Escher in Lego; Wood & wire

//na//

• This Lego rendering of MC Escher’s Relativity is a grand slam on the geek meter–and just about the coolest thing I’ve seen all week. See also the artists’ treatment of Escher’s Ascending and Descending. [Via]
• Thomas Raschke makes excellent wire frame sculptures–kind of the old Adobe Dimensions come to life.
• Michael Salter is all about styrofoam sculptures, large and small. [Via]
• Dig the bloopy shapes and shifty eyes of Brendan Monroe’s wooden sculptures. [Via]
• I found myself really enjoying the colors & characters in Oliver Jeffers sketchbook (top item, left column). [Via]
