Join me every Sunday when I share some of my favorite links I discovered in the previous week. Earlier posts in the series can be found here.
And here is Week 126...
1. This video of Japanese craftsmen making handmade paper is mesmerizing and very meditative.
2. And speaking of meditative and mesmerizing, watch this video of the making of Vertical Emptiness, Onishi Yasuaki's 2013 installation at the Kyoto Center. You will not believe what it is made of.
3. And speaking of unexpected materials, carved stone suspended on burlap from Eduardo Terranova.
4. Rae Missigman shares her journal pages, her "timer technique" and a video of her process in this guest post on Julie Fei-Fan Balzer's blog.
5. The African Bricks: I find these colorful, mosaic artworks by Charis Tsevis very compelling.
6. Have always loved the collages and combines from Robert Rauschenberg but also excited to have come across an artwork from him that is unexpected...
...and a fascinating article about Rauschenberg, an artist who worked to "crack the secret language of junk."
7. Flashback link 2015: Venice on My Mind. The making of a journal page...

The mosaic paintings are stunning. I can't figure out how they were created? Digital? Anyway, good find!
Every week so many wonderful inspiring ideas. Loved every one. Rauschenberg is such a favorite of mine and such an influence. We all influence each other. Thank you for this Seth.
Hugs.

THANK YOU !!!!
Good choices- thanks Got a chance to check out a couple of them. Enjoyed your throwback-inspired to work on one today!
Always loved Robert Rauschenberg's work. Very interesting article! Thank you!
I, too, found the article and works on Rauschenberg very interesting. And wow, the surprise element in that icy sculpture, I was not expecting. I had to look up the word just to make sure that was really what he used. My oh my.
The African brick pieces are amazing. Thanks for sharing!
What a great collection of inspiration.
Water a glue! Throw in paint, bricks, photos... Such a wonderful week!!! Luv it! Now should I meditate or spring into creative action???
You never disappoint with the variety of work you extract from the internet. I was explaining the internet to my mother who was in her mid 90's at the time. The only thing I could think to say to connect her to the vastness of the internet was this..."Imagine all the greatest libraries in the world rolled into one you can access with your fingertips." Her eyes widened acknowledging the thought in wonderment saying with sincere comprehension..."that's wonderful". I get the very same feeling every week when I explore your posts. Thank you!
