The surreal and satirical porcelain sculptures with social criticism by Penny Byrne

From Australia, the sharp eyes of artist Penny Byrne don't stop to perceive and look the world around, with a critical opinion about what is happening. Using her art as expression, she creates sculptures with porcelain figurines and other toy dolls, with a twist of the way we generally see them. The result are figures sometimes surreal, sometimes satirical, but always with a position about society's aspects that deserve some attention.

Sometimes with a funny criticism to the cult of beauty and its sacrifices that transforms women in just body parts, sometimes with figures that make ironies of international politics and wars, or even with the russian position about liberty of speech of homossexuals, Penny Byrne's sculptures are always provocative and challenging.

The dark sci-fi illustrations by Christian Quinot

I previously featured some work of philippean artist Christian Quinot when I showed some of his amazing and dark illustrations of fantasy. However, Quinot's art themes are not bounded to just fantasy. He also explores science fiction concepts and themes.

Christian Quinot's sci-fi illustrations have a dark and opressive mood, with cybernetic warriors ready to engage at war, laboratories and experiments with a 'Aliens' feel, monsters, mutants and classical space ships and futuristic robots.
