The work of Li Wei is a mixture of performance art and photography that creates illusions of a sometimes dangerous reality in an amusing way. Li Wei states that these images are not computer montages and works with the help of props such as mirror, metal wires, scaffolding and acrobatics.

American-Chinese Installation Artist tells a very cute chinese tale with the red threads legend. Besides all her work seem to be very delicate, floating in space.

Since I like "hairy" material and structures I am somehow attracted to these artworks by japanese Artist Shiota, living in Berlin.
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."
"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. "
Yoshioka presented an installation “Snow” at the “Sensing Nature” exhibition, which was held at the Mori Art Museum from July 24th 2010. In a huge space of 15m in width, fine feathers are blown up by the wind and shower down as if real snow does. Created to remind it’s viewer of “the beauty of nature that exceeds our imaginations”.

Fantastic Artwork by AJ Fosik. I´d love to have one of these. Fosik´s wooden sculptures have some fairy tale, asian touch.
