it's the little things

Through Helen Nodding’s eyes the world is miniature. Her array of sculptures includes a wee castle for spiders, bridges across cracks in paving stones and a house on stilts to keep be-draggled ants safe from the rain.  After graduating from London’s Central St Martin’s School of Art, in 2001, her artwork has been featured is loads of lovely glossies (including Craft Magazine and Adbusters) and she’s putting on her first solo show in London this year. Alas we can’t make it to the UK, but we can have a little look at her stuff here.

india soundpad

This is what you get when you take four of India’s up and coming indie bands and plonk them in a studio with one of the UK’s top producers. Saffron summer sounds to warm a winter’s day.
