Mu Boyan was born in the Shangdong province of China. In 1997, he graduated from the Central Academy of Fine Arts with a degree in Fine Arts. He obtained her Master’s degree in 1995 from the same university. His work has extensively been exhibited throughout the world. One of his more recent work tackles the touchy subject of obesity by featuring an adorable, but undeniably fat Sumo wrestler. Fat is fat, but there are two ways of looking at it. While an excess of adipose tissue may be unattractive to Westerners, in the East, it’s a sign of decadent wealth. After all, only people who can afford to be fat are those who can afford to eat more food than they absolutely have to.

Christopher Domakis is a German photographer with a deep and abiding passion for minimalistic photography. His shots are known for their almost perfect geometric precision with emphasis on wide open spaces and outstanding architecture. He said: “Minimalistic architectural experiences. The combination of clean shapes and the choice of color makes a building or an interior as minimalistic as you can see in my pictures if the construction itself stands in full harmony or hard contrast to its environment.”

Robert Rickhoff’s series ‘Out of Place’ infuses tongue-in-cheek humor with seemingly commonplace settings. A skateboard ramp and a badminton court (at least I think it’s a badminton court) is set right in the middle of a street. All of the photos were digitally altered but it’s hard to tell in a few of them. The accident-friendly swing and slide are a couple of my favorites. If they were real, I’d probably risk a ride just for the thrill of it.

To say that Fabian Schlaga is a comic book fan is an understatement. His illustrations of the characters in the series The Uncanny X-men are some of the best I’ve seen. His work is faithful to the original cartoon series I remember watching as a kid. The costume, the attitude, and end even the iconic poses are the same. This 25-year-old German artist is someone I’ll definitely keep an eye out for in the future.
