Can other animals make art?
Without being able to get into the heads of animals, it’s hard to say for sure. But instances of pig painters, whale crooners and bird sculptors certainly make it seem plausible.

How Knitted Street Art is Brightening Cities Worldwide
Discover how knitted street art is transforming cities worldwide with its colorful and creative designs. From cozy yarn-wrapped trees to crochet-covered benches, this art brings happiness and a sense of community to urban spaces.
Instead of using spray paint or drawing, these artists use yarn to decorate everyday things like trees, benches, and bikes. They turn plain spaces into colorful and eye-catching works of art. This type of art combines the coziness of handmade crafts with the boldness of outdoor art.

Anna Souter visits Embodied Forms: Painting Now, exploring whether art might dissolve the boundaries between the mind and body to better know the climate
In Western thought, the apparently immaterial ‘rational mind’ has long been isolated from, and elevated above, other ways of knowing and being. Anna Souter visits Embodied Forms: Painting Now, an exhibition at Thaddeus Ropac, to explore the possibility that art might be able to help us dissolve these boundaries, opening the doors to new ways of coming to know the climate.
Feeling it. What? Do you? Do you listen? Listening inside out. What happens if we don’t do anything? Bodies moving together through space, rhythms, times. Connecting, following, letting go of each other. Body-space. Holding each other. Holding on to each other. City-jungle. Co-existing. Co-depending...

I’ve been wanting to do more scenes of solarpunk ships. Shipping underpins a huge amount of our society and I think building a more solarpunk world will mean changing it in some really interesting ways.
Last time I did a ship in a storm, but I wanted to do something a little more bright and happy this time around. A month or so ago I was talking with a sailor on the solarpunk subreddit and I asked if there was anything they’d like to see in nautical solarpunk art. I was kind of looking for design ideas but what they gave me was better –an excellent list of experiences and details which stood out from their voyages, one of which was the way whales come right up to sail ships because they’re so quiet and the whales are curious. So I started looking for art of ships and whales to reference, and (of course) almost exclusively found of paintings of
