Bricklayer Transforms Stone into Hypnotically Detailed Sculptures
Johnny Clasper’s hypnotic free-form stonework is a swirling spectacle that garners its fair share of attention, and rightly so. The stonemason’s passion for his craft is apparent in every detailed design. From drystone sculptures to pebble mosaics and stone balancing acts, Clasper has a skill for transforming the commonplace material into works of art. The artist credits his upward trajectory on a passion for stone that carries him in many different directions. He admits, “I reject any boundaries to my work and I remain passionate about the work I do.”

DIY Kintsugi
Mirel Crumb
I sculpted this face over the course of a month last year. I was very happy with it and it was one of the pieces I got into Palate to Palette. It was hanging in my high school’s gallery for our juried show (I attached a wire to the back with apoxie) and it fell and broke just before I left to graduate.
I heard about Kintsugi through Tumblr at some point and I told my teacher my idea. Now, this is by no means traditional kintsugi. My “Gold paste” Was superglue and goop with white and gold paint on top. However, it is true to the spirit of kintsugi. That is, it really is more beautiful now that it has the third color and all of the lines and added texture. I am glad I did not throw this piece away in sorrow. I was able to transform the pain of loss into appreciation, and I wouldn’t have thought to fix it in this way without knowledge of this Japanese aesthetic practice.
