Balloonsssss

I guess this isn't really drawing/painting related, but these are pretty amazing.






Jason Hackenwerth makes these super delightful balloon sculptures, some of which are wearable and are worn for performances. Mediocre childhood birthday party craft made big and bright and fun!
























Also, Jimmy Joe Roche. He is a pretty cool guy. He's a video artist who does things like somehow attach his tomato plants to see what kind of noises they make; attaches electrodes to his face and flails around to control sound and projected video; and does/did video for Dan Deacon. I don't know if any of you guys happened to go to Dan Deacon's Ultimate Reality at Eyedrum a while ago, but it was the most exciting thing that's ever happened to me: Ultimate Reality. Jimmyjoeroche is part of Wham City, a Baltimore-based art collective. He also does these pretty amazing cut paper collages.
