This installation for the Gallery of Modern Art in Brisbane is simultaneously a modern art home run and an interior designer’s nightmare. Artist Yayoi Kusama constructed the large home environment and painted it white. Over the course of two weeks, the museum’s smallest visitors were given thousands of colored stickers and were invited to collaborate in the transformation.
The Obliteration Room runs through March 12. Via Colossal.

Jim Denevan’s mission was to create the world’s largest work of art. His canvas? The world’s largest lake. Jim and his team decorated 9 square miles of the frozen Siberian lake with circles based on the Fibonacci sequence. The result is, in a way, less impressive than the process. Crew members had to brave sub-zero temperatures and hurricane-force winds. Some of the gusts were so strong, they actually blew away the art work. The project was recorded in a documentary and book.

On exhibition at the 2011 Tokyo Motor Show is this foldable electric scooter, from Honda. The Motor Compo’s total length and height are under 39”, making it easy to pop in the back seat or trunk. It also features a removable battery designed to be used as an emergency power source in case of disaster.
