Isaac Cordal: Elusive miniature scultpures in our streets

Isaac Cordal is a sculpture artist from Galicia. His miniature sculptures can be found all over Europe in gutters, on roof tops, walking out of tiny drains and other unassuming locations.  Now that you know they might be there, look again and seek them out.

Amazing animal sculpture shoes!

A friend emailed these amazing animal shoes to me.

I would love to know their story.  Who makes them and who wears them!

Not sure I would trust these spindly legs to hold me up

 dog or bear? I am interested in how they have designed the heel.

I couldn't even have these in my house!

I have tried to find out where these wild animal shoes are from with no joy.

Looking for the Invisible Man?

When I first saw this photo I thought it was just an old tractor.  Look a bit closer and you will see the Chinese artist Liu Bolin (The invisible man)

Bolin is famous for his series of artwork, "Hiding in the city,” where he paints himself into the background of various notable locations in China, France, Italy and New York.
