You may be asking yourself, why would I want a snow globe with a silo or 4 in the middle? That doesn't seem really wintery or nice to have out when grandma comes over. UK-based agency Dorothy created this No Globes snow globe to protest the building of dirty coal-fired power stations. Shake that globe, and black, disgusting dirt-filled remnants come out of the towers.

One thing we have learned (of many) as we have been traveliing through Sri Lanka this past week is how ugly and eye-soring a power line can be in lush, beautiful environments. That is why we love the Deer shaped hydro tower concept designed by Moscow-based Design Depot.

We have shown you snow works before on the site, but these in particular, by Sonja Hinrichsen, are impressive in that the artist uses snowshoes to create these elabroate patterns in the snow. One of the most impressive things about this? There is a ton of patterns and connecting shapes here, meaning Hinrichsen is taken hours upons hours to create and then document the work.

William De Kooning was once quoted saying that any idea is good enough. Becoming a successful artist with a thought provoking body of work does not necessitate a politically radical output of visual media. What is important is to develop an immersive practice of poesy, enthusiasm, and intelligence. Malin Gabriella Nordin not only has developed an immersive practice but has chosen the strangely fascinating and banal topic of rocks.
