This photo series by Barcelona-based Oscar Ciutat is called Caged.

“The project started by chance back in 2008. I was visiting the local zoo, which I hadn’t been to in ages, and started taking pictures of the captive animals, just like everyone else was doing. My attention kept being drawn to their eyes, which, to me, seemed very sad, and I ended focusing my camera on them. I was intrigued by whether my impressions would be apparent to other people in the images. I wondered if that popular old saying, referring to humans, that goes “the eyes are the windows to the soul” could hold true for animals as well.”

Childcare is such an important part of many kids’ lives, and an integral component in their growth. It makes it easy to have the go-to building each day equipped with large and expressive animals abound the exterior.

This tiered building is located in Boulogne-Billancourt, France with Hondelatte Laporte Architectes at the helm of this creative process. While the interior is divvied up accordingly, it’s the exterior elements that really capture attention. Though the giraffe is stuck through part of the outdoor canopy, a bear on the opposing side peers over while ladybug’s trample up the side to get in on the patio level.

Victorine Müller Performing Inside Her Sculptures

At times called ‘performative sculpture’ Swiss artist Victorine Müller combines sculpture and performance art to intriguing effect.  Her large but airy PVC sculptures stand ghost-like, glowing in the light and disappearing in the shadows.  Müller herself sits or stands peacefully inside the sculpture.  The title of her most recent exhibit “Wild at Heart” sheds some light onto her work.  Müller temporarily inhabits the inside of an animal – the guts, the heart, the womb, the soul.  Though simple, each performance connects easily with the viewers communicating, as Müller says “something that is not said and cannot be said, but that is.”
