Those are all great, thanks for sharing!!!
What are YOU thankful for? Come share a story and win a little thankful something!
Truly inspiring. I can't even imagine doing anything with packing tape, it can be such a pain to merely tape a box! I'll have to check those faqs. I love em all though, another grouping using humble material ala Jen Stark, etc. xo
O M G, fascinating!
Thanks for the post and really interesting work. It is curious though that in our day and age it seems realism in the art world is worth looking at if it is done with atypical materials. If the images were maid out of paint, or tile mosaic would any one take note? Also what kind of dialogue happens between the media used and the subject matter? Does it matter if the faces were made out of staples, tape, or push pins? Or is it all about the quirky use of materials? Hmmm...just a thought. Thanks for getting me thinking!

There are moments in ones life when you feel like you have just witnessed genius. This is one of those moments!
I seriously want to go try stapling my family room wall now... ;)
abiggerworld, i saw a similar art installation at the MoCA in San Diego recently--by Tara Donovan.
Again--I love traditional media also, but I was blown away by the use of every-day items, just because someone else could see the beauty in these "boring" items. For weeks afterwords, I couldn't use a straw, or a paperclip, or a button without looking at it more closely and seeing the beauty in it. Or thinking about how many items together produces a unique "emergence" of beauty, when one alone does not.
