Infinity Tentacles For The Lovecrafian Mathematician

Posted by Jill Harness in Art, Art & Design, Design on September 5, 2011 at 1:59 am

There’s not much to say about this infinity tentacle other than it was created by DeviantArt user Andrew Strauss and that it is so delightfully geeky that it had to be featured here on Neatorama.

Etsy seller Rebecca Roka offers this squidscot covered with 29 sucker cups. Her shop includes a “Tentacle section.” Now there’s a retailing novelty! Not even the largest Wal-Mart has a tentacle section.

Embroidered Wall Tentacle

Posted by John Farrier in Art & Design, Crafts on January 25, 2011 at 6:15 pm

Sure, you could have an ordinary wall tentacle, but what fun is that? If you’re going to really shock your mother-in-law, it needs to be in a traditional craft, such as embroidery. Craftster user jemimah made this solid work of embroidery using a technique called stumpwork. That involves working the fabric over a wire base to form a solid object.

Wall Tentacle

Posted by John Farrier in Art on August 27, 2010 at 8:54 am

Etsy seller ArtAkimbo created a sculpture that looks like a tentacle entering the room through a porthole. It’s made from wood, styrofoam, newsprint, and sawdust. At the link, you can see pictures of what it would look like in a well-furnished office or bedroom.

12 Fantastic Architectural Art Installations

Posted by Jill Harness in Art, Travel on July 29, 2009 at 9:42 pm

Web Urbanist just put up a nice collection of art installations on buildings. They’re all great designs, particularly the tentacle piece above:

An artist calling himself ‘FilthyLuker’ installed inflatable octopus tentacles in the windows of an unnamed building in June of 2009, making it appear as if the building is being devoured by a bright green kraken that somehow emerged from the sea and got stuck inside.

Does anyone know where this building is?

Remember the squid hat that Jill and Miss C posted? Well, I found a dress to match: behold the octodress by VECONA, as displayed in their Cabaret Gothique fashion show in Bruges last month. Via jwz.
