Isaac Cordal is a Galician artist whose work is often found out on the streets of urban centres. In this installation ‘Cement Bleak’ he uses regular kitchen colanders in which to craft faces which are then installed in public spaces. The result are eery shadows of anonymous faces as you pass along the sidewalk. Not unlike the faces we pass every day in an urban environment.

They call it the Tiger Temple, and its story is the stuff of fairy tales. According to Abbot Pra-Acharn Phusit, a tiger cub orphaned by poachers was brought to the temple years ago.
The abbot cared for her and, as word spread, more people brought sickly and orphaned cubs to the temple’s doorstep. Those cubs went on to have their own cubs, and nine years on there are now 34 tigers living here.
The Buddhists believe in reincarnation and the abbot feels that these tigers are his family. As he told ABC News, “I think they are my babies: my son, my daughter, my father, mother. If not in the present life, in the past life.”
Buddhists also believe that animals, like humans, are sentient beings.
