Maria Rubinke is an amazing artist currently based out of Copenhagen, Denmark who creates sculptural pieces of little children depicted in gruesome and gory scenes. Currently, Rubinke does not have a personal website up, but you can definitely check out more of her work on her Facebook. I want all of them decorating all four walls and corners in my office!

Kyle Thompson is a 21 year old photographer based out of Chicago, Illinois. His work is mind-blowing for any age, but still, what's so mesmerizing is how young this man is. Highly refined with simple details and organically powerful.

Director Jia Zhangke’s politically-charged feature A Touch of Sin // 天註定 enters the thematically similar lives of four individuals in their struggles against financial / immoral realities.
Synopsis can be read as follows (via Cannes Film Festival 2013):
“An angry miner revolts against the corruption of his village leaders.A migrant worker at home for the New Year discovers the infinite possibilities a firearm can offer.A pretty receptionist at a sauna is pushed to the limit when a rich client assaults her.A young factory worker goes from job to job trying to improve his lot in life.Four people, four different provinces. A reflection on contemporary China: that of an economic giant slowly being eroded by violence.”
