I´m a big fan of all United Visual Artist´s work. Here is a very interesting music video made for Massive Attack "United Snakes".
Very lovely works, both in song by Emilie Simon and direction by Phillippe Andre.
Seeing a huge landscape made out of fruits or a banaboat with an ice cream moon gives me a big apetite!
Watch some delicous landscapes, where everything is made out of food.

Rik Oestenbroek is a young talented Dutch digital artists. I really like his dynamic colors, shapes and painting style.
See these great and funny sculptures by Haroshi: "Haroshi makes his art pieces recycling old used skateboards. His creations are born through styles such as wooden mosaic, dots, and pixels; where each element, either cut out in different shapes or kept in their original form, are connected in different styles, and shaven into the form of the final art piece. Haroshi became infatuated with skateboarding in his early teens, and is still a passionate skater at present."
Film, Design and VFX Studio Umeric create very nice motion grafics for MTV teasers.
Of course the picture series "Totems" touches my heart, not least because the setting itself looks perfectly clean with cheerful colors.

"I am a child of the 70s whose sense of futurism is informed by Star Wars (fucked-up dusty robots) instead of Tomorrow Land. A future with entropy and drug use and weeds growing in the cracks between the scratched plexiglass windows of the geodesic domes."

"[...] The sculptures I create focus on human psychology, stripped of context and rationalization, and articulated through animal and human forms. On the surface, these figures are simply feral and domestic individuals suspended in a moment of tension. Beneath the surface they embody the impacts of aggression, territorial desires, isolation, and pack mentality. "
Watch this great 3D Artwork by Patrick Jean.
