Halloween 2006: Thomas Keeley by Letizia Rossi
Thomas Keeley, a 25 year-old Rhode Island School of Design grad based in New York City, creates three dimensional pieces with creepy Halloween-esque themes. Equipped with wings and fangs, the "Bat Chair" is a slightly sinister yet entirely functional take on a classic café-style chair. A hair brush with dozens of bloody fingertips in place of bristles serves as a very literal interpretation of "running fingers through your hair." Keeley is currently working on illustrations and typography as well as venturing further into chair modifications.

The Green Depot
by Laura Neilson The much-anticipated Green Depot finally opened its doors three weeks ago on Manhattan's Bowery.
