Face Off – Living Art

An interesting art-based Face Off challenge is almost ruined when the judges don’t seem to grasp surrealism. It doesn’t matter because Elvira showed up. Elvira! For the foundation challenge, everyone has to create a “young, hip” take on Elvira’s iconic look. It was a pretty cool challenge, and we saw pretty creative angles.

Really straightforward business this week. No foundation challenge, no teams, no twists. Everyone goes underground to find one of six scenes with evidence of a subterranean creature. Twelve artists, twelve original creatures, no film or video game tie-in. Jordu Schell is the […]
