WARNING: GRAPHIC CONTENT !!

switching gears, some great graphics, & content / thought / code . . from FRANCE.

from a website called: artistswhodothings

a beautiful, and emotive, informational graphics book by PHILIPPE MAYAUX.

this is the image that first caught my attention.

NEW PSYCHOLOGY, hurray !!


up in the clouds, hurray, hurray, and more hurray.
PHILIPPE MAYAUX . . nails it.


the book is called: ‘Le 4e Clou’ – or, ‘The Fourth Nail’.
metaphors abound, 4th dimension . . does spring to mind.
the 3rd wheel ?!! NOT !!
is this not – gorgeous, or what ?


that ‘nail’ is as slick, and cold as ice, while that orange border – is so warm and, well: ‘bio’ !!
hot and cold sensations – run through the mind . . . a race between thought ‘processing’, and pure visual – delight.
the reflective silver, always changing ‘tone’ . . the hand of the artist. ultra, and forever . . ‘creative’. thinking. measuring. building.
the opaque orange. constant. dense. the wheel of the world, the logic of the ‘organism’.
the ‘earth’/ the ‘ground’.
the ground rules / the code of ‘life’, in a visual . . nutshell.


PHILIPPE MAYAUX, ‘Le 4e Clou’, 2008.
publisher: editions Dilecta.
160 pages.
limited edition of 150, each signed and numbered by the artist.
