Norway-based street artist Skurk has done quite a few impressive murals, but this time an art collective called BART gave him quite a challenging task – a building wall with a staircase and light bulbs. Skurk found a perfect solution.
He used the lamps to create a nightmarish anglerfish, a bony sea creature famous for a luminescent ‘antenna’ on its head. Anglerfish use this organ to lure their prey in dark water environments. Also, females use it to attract males for mating. “Those lamps asked for some mean incorporation,” Skurk said.

HIJACK: Alabama Gov. Kay Ivey on Wednesday signed into law a controversial abortion bill that could punish doctors who perform abortions with life in prison. Alabama will become the state with the country’s most restrictive abortion law and the law will immediately become fodder for the swirling debate over if (and when) the Supreme Court might consider overturning the landmark Roe v. Wade ruling. “When women are in control of their sexuality, it threatens a core element underpinning right-wing ideology: patriarchy,” .”It’s a brutal form of oppression to seize control of the 1 essential thing a person should command: their own body.” Alexandria Ocasio-Cortes
