Winter in Kraków by Marcin Ryczek.
“Sometimes you have to watch somebody love something before you can love it yourself. It’s as if they are showing you the way.”
Why carve your sculptures when you could delicately glue thousands of perfectly cut pieces of paper together? Beijing editor and designer Li Hongbo, inspired by tradtional Chinese paper toys and decorations, applied the same methods to create these very cool, flexible paper sculptures. [via.]
Watch a video of it here.
Ham & Heroin has been alive for six years and I figured it’s about time this thing got a little more gussied up. New year, new look. Let me know if you guys like it as much as I do or if you hate it and want it to die a miserable death.

“I Love You” by Woodkid [Official Music Video]
Woodkid aka Yoann Lemoine is one of my favorite artists in this world today. He is a singer/songwriter, illustrator, producer and director. If I had grown up to be any of these things, my style would’ve been exactly his.
His first album comes out March 18, 2013. Until then, check out the rest of his work here.

“Rest, nature, books, music… such is my idea of happiness.”
You know those nights
or days and flights
when in each mirror or fern
you see the reflection of your
very own destiny?
And in foliage and cowardice
you think
I’ll never grow into this
No Lord I’ll never grow out of this
and the hardest fastest
depression like ice
cracks forward,
and you realize, sure,
this monster
is all of me
before.

The photographs of William Claxton define the essence of cool — his stunningly intimate images of icons like Frank Sinatra, Chet Baker and Bob Dylan combine technical innovation and an unerring sense of the moment to forge a singular aesthetic he defined as “jazz for the eyes.” [via.]
Love this man’s work.
