Walter Martin & Paloma MuñozSnow globes are designed to be turned upside down. Martin and Muñoz, though, really turned them upside down. Where traditional snow globes are intended to evoke a pleasant memory, the snow globes of Martin and Muñoz seem to portend an anxious future event.

These orbs seem to anticipate terrible events that might happen, or might be happening right now to somebody else.Where traditional snow globes depict cheerful scenes, Martin and Muñoz give us eerie scenes, scenes rife with anxiety and uncertainty, scenes that reside in the darker parts of the human psyche.

Edgar DegasLinked words: plan, control, pattern

“I’ve spent the last 25 years of my photographic career investigating movement and its expressive potential. My inspiration has always been photography’s ability to stop time and reveal what the naked eye cannot see. My interest in photography is not to capture an image I see or even have in my mind, but to explore the potential of moments

Jackson Pollock

Pollock was an American painter, the chief pioneer of Abstract Expressionism.

He created enormous drip paintings. He painted in a tool shed where he could lay his canvas on the floor, and drip and splatter paint across it without worrying about ruining the walls or floor.

Rather than paint a landscape or a portrait, Pollock wanted to paint action. When you look at one of his drip paintings, your eye wanders across the entire canvas in constant motion.

Roy Lichtenstein

Beginning in 1962 Lichtenstein borrowed images of explosions from popular war comics for use in his paintings. The subject embodies the revolutionary nature of Pop Art and suggests the very real threat of annihilation by nuclear explosion that was prevalent at that time (the Cuban Missile Crisis occurred in 1962). But Lichtenstein was also interested in the way dynamic events like explosions were depicted in the stylised format of comic book illustration.
