The Deglon Meeting Knife , designed by Mia Schmallenbach, is a set of sculptural, nested knives (priced, alas, as sculptures, at $600 for the set). The proportions of the four nested knives — paring knife, carving knife, chefs knife and filleting knife — are “determined by the Fibonacci sequence with as its base the average width of a hand.” Admire The Deglon Meeting Knife Set Deglon Meeting Knife (Amazon)

This is a mushroom cloud treehouse designed and built by sculptor Dietrich Wegner. It looks pretty awesome , but would look even awesomer with a ‘NO GURLZ ALOUD’ sign hanging outside. *throwing dirtballs* READ THE SIGN, SUZY! The structure is about twenty feet tall, and the artist intended for it to show “two conflicting ideas,” which one can only assume is “play” and “doom,” though it’s supposedly representative of the contradiction between what our eyes enjoy and what our mind knows… Seriously bro? Why does every single thing somebody makes have to have some sort of pretentious message? Why can’t it just be a sweet treehouse to hang out with your friends and plan the toilet-papering of a neighbor’s house? I swear. I made an egg for breakfast but you don’t see me writing about how it’s the symbolic representation of my own rebirth that I know can never never happen because I was never properly fertilized or nurtured in the first place, do you? “You just did. What does bacon mean?” F*** this, I’m going for a walk. Hit the jump for three more designs of the same theme.

Jeremy Meyer, who sculpts beautiful animals and humans out of typewriter parts and other romantic twen-cen junque, has just completed this commission, a typewriter-part penguin. He says, “My latest- a penguin about 13 inches tall, made from typewriter parts. A commission. I perused photos of penguin skeletons and went to the Monterey Bay Aquarium for reference.” Penguin I ( Thanks, Jeremy ! )

Canadian sculptor Maskull Lasserre produces stellar works that incorporate rough-carved anatomical themes into everyday objects — an ax-handle is carved into a sinuous spinal column, clavicles emerge from coat hangers , a rib-cage is carved into a stack of books , foetal skeletons lurk in bedposts , and so on (there’s also plenty of non-anatomical work that’s charming as all get-out, like the typewriter-piano , sniper’s violin and insane farm implements ). Lasserre is exhibiting in a group show at Montreal’s PFOAC gallery until Aug 6. ( via This is Colossal )

This is a sculpture of actor Kevin Bacon made out of bacon . Personally, I think it looks more like Conan O’Bacon, but what do I know besides everything including the secrets to time travel AND blemish free skin? Did I mention Kevin Baconface here is for sale on eBay ? Because he is. Plus all proceeds go to Ashley’s Team, a non-profit aimed at “bringing joy to childhood cancer patients and their families.” *wiping tear* Don’t worry, BKB has been well lacquered and will stay tasty for generations to come so stop listening to your inner-doubt, put in a bid and make every person you will ever know jealous of your legendarily epic greatness. Owning Bacon Kevin Bacon will automatically make you the coolest person you will ever know, a champion of the underground meat sculpture movement and honestly should really tie any room together nicely. After all, bacon does make everything better. *Bacon Kevin Bacon is not edible. Whoa whoa whoa — not edible?! WTF’s the purpose of a bacon sculpture that’s not edible? That’s like making unsniffable glue. And speaking of which — after fifteen days of staying clean I’ve started eating crayons again. It’s true, I left a rainbow in the bathroom for my roommate to find. See it yet? Hint: look in the toilet. Also on the floor around the toilet. Oh, and in the tub. Hit the jump for a bunch more pictures (including one of an art patron in a Budweiser dress) and a link to the auction.

We’ve all been there: you’re setting up a up a new computer , you get a little distracted and next thing you know, BAM! — you’re experimenting sexually with a mess of tangled cables . Unfortunately, I didn’t have the sense to shape them into something first. And it was still awesome. Well this is a self portrait by LA artist Kasey McMahon made from CAT-5 cables entitled ‘Connected’. Because that’s what cables do, they connect things. SAME GOES FOR PAPER CLIPS AND VELCRO. Now, can you name something else that connects things? What do you mean “muffins”?! Listen, I’d like to schedule a meeting with your parents. Not that it’s any of your business, but I’m gonna tell them you’re retarded. Hit the jump for one more shot from the side.
