Colossal Art Blog

“Launched in 2010, Colossal is a Webby-nominated blog that explores art and other aspects of visual culture. Colossal won the Utne Media Award for Arts Coverage in 2013. Each week you’ll find 15-25 posts on photography, design, animation, painting, installation art, architecture, drawing, and street art. Colossal is also a great place to learn about the intersection of art and science as well as the beauty of the natural world. There are frequently posts about things far out in left field, but generally Colossal is a reminder that in the digital age there are still countless people making incredible work with their bare hands.

Colossal began as the personal art and design blog of Christopher Jobson(Instagram) before growing somewhat unexpectedly into what you see today. He lives in Chicago with his wife Megan and son Caleb. In addition to what you see here, he has also written about art and design for Wired Magazine, Mental_Floss, Slate, and Quartz. You can learn more about him in FastCo and Demo Magazine. Christopher currently serves as editor-in-chief, and head contributor to Colossal.
