This morning we take a look at some new work from Los Angeles-based artist Rob Sato. We have featured Sato before in Juxtapoz Magazine. We love his rich, colorful and highly detailed dream-like sketches and paintings.   

Using three different cameras to record the motion data, artist Daniel Franke created a moving sculpture visualizing a musical piece with a dancer's body. Each of the cameras reacts to sound and support the physical imitation of the musical piece by the performer. The movements of the dancer created a reference to an otherwise invisible space.  

  Some new photos have surfaced of the United States nuclear weapons Operation Crossroads, conducted in 1946 off the coast of Bikini Atoll in the Marshall Islands. Two bombs were detonated underwater that resulted in a 900ft vertical column of water. These images were taken 3.5 miles away from the island's beach, still uninhabitable due to the radiation.  

We are enjoying the work of New York-based multi-disciplinary artist Saiman Chow. Throughout his career Saiman has collaborated with Yo Gabba Gabba, Converse, Diesel, Adidas, Nike, the New York Times and many others. He immigrated to the US from Hong Kong as a teenager and studied illustration at Art Center College of Design. 

Askew One recently sent over images of his new outdoor tribute piece that he painted of the great Ralph Hotere in Kingsland. He told us 'Ralph Hotere had was an extremely influential and important figure in New Zealand's art history, but was also really loved for his generosity of spirit. When we put the word out that were keen to make this tribute happen, so many good people came on board to ensure that it did.'  

  Vivian Loh describes her photos as "a reflection on the human's naked form being a source of beauty and shame." These photos are intensely honest, presenting the body as the ultimate and undeniable human expressor. Loh's deft handling of light and color articulate an innate relationship between the model and her environment, bringing to mind the perennial imagery of Eve and her walk through Eden.   

A lone palm tree that survived the 2001 tsunami in Japan has been rebuilt as a monument to honor the 19,000 victims of the disaster. The only survivor of the 70,000 trees that were taken out from the water held on for a while, but eventually died due to environmental changes in the ground. The tree was cut up, the trunk hallowed out reinforced with a carbon spine, and partly re-created as a permanent monument.

#Untamed is a unique digital Photo installation, filled with a collection extraordinary Instagram photos from around the world—hosted in Paris. The installation presents impressive projections of the most inspiring photos to an international, audience of art enthusiasts and translates the individual, digital style of each participant into real life.

Last summer, Jerry Hsu's video series, The Killing Season, debuted on the web. The series captured Hsu's 3-week motorcycle trip through Vietnam that featured, amongst other things, a brush with death, a broken rib, and constant rain. The trip has now spawned the SPA-published, limited 150 run of The Killing Season book, featuring Hsu's documentary photography of his friends and the trip. The book is now available on SPA's site. 

Tim Lee’s large-scale ink drawings and paintings on rice paper are, at a first glance, tightly bound with the visual aesthetics of Chinese painting, while simultaneously referencing elements of traditional European art. The conflation of these visual cultures is unsurprising: Lee is a British artist of Chinese descent. But the work does not just amount to a reverential homage to these past cultures.
