Collaged installations by Berlin-based American artist Claire Börsch: fantastical, dreamlike ecosystems summoned up by amorphous swathes of flora, fauna, human figures and gemstones of which she tells Colossal:

I made a series of collages and then later realized that many of the species in the vintage illustrations had already gone extinct. Humanity has wiped out 68% of all our planet’s biodiversity since 1970, so working with vintage illustrations can be very heartbreaking

Digital collages merging vintage photographs, botanics, astronomy and all manner of scavenged copyright-free imagery by anonymous Greek art duo Frank Moth, who describe their work as “nostalgic postcards from the future.”

Available as prints here.

The bizarre collages of artist Lola Dupre – shards of photographs offset, duplicated, stretched, squished and layered.

Currently exhibiting (until September 7th) as part of the ’Lunacy’ show at Prescription Art in Brighton, if you’re passing.

Sligo based filmmaker Paraic McGloughlin’s blistering hyper-edit video for ‘Someday’ by Dutch electronica duo Weval. Count the cuts (no, don’t, you’ll get a headache). 

You may recall Paraic’s excellent kaleidoscopic abstract (shot from a road bridge in Sligo) for Max Cooper last year.

Full screen recommended.
