Maisie Maud Broadhead’s Cable Drawings – A series of installations created with wire flex and cable fixings – is a splendid way to deal with excess cable-age. Although you’d have to have rather a lot of excess to pull off anything resembling the masterpiece above… or an extension cord. Which would kind of defeat the object.

French artist Vincent Bousserez takes photos of miniature plastic people in normal sized surroundings. There are men climbing to the summit of a human nipple, workmen quarrying a slice of cake, window cleaners traversing a watch face and (my favourite, above) a man mowing a lawn of stubble. The stubble lawn seems to perfectly blur the lines between a father’s adult features and a child’s imagination.

You can see the whole of Bousserez’s collection, called Plastic Life, on Flickr.
