The true reality of the advertisements of McDonald's Big Mac, Burger King's Whopper, McDonald's Angus Deluxe TP and Taco Bells' Crunchy Taco versus the reality of what you get in the bag. One valiant photographer, Dario D., has chosen to challenge these contradictions of the senses head on. He set out on a small quest to compare the advertising images distributed by fast food providers with the products that are actually served in those notable establishments.
Reading Landscapes by Kyle Kirkpatrick
UK-based artist Kyle Kirkpatrick transforms books into beautiful landscape sculptures, complete with miniature figurines. The layering in Kirkpatrick's work is remarkable and the text on the pages add an interesting visual to the swirling cuts.

"My practice is primarily concerned with the notion of the imagined landscape. I present man-made objects and natural materials simultaneously to form carefully and meticulously composed installation works. I capitalize on intrigue taking objects out of context reinventing their use, pushing the viewer to see beyond what I present before them, a glass could be interpreted as a lake or a metal bracket a cliff".
