Description originale

For this body of work I have assembled more than one hundred thousand hand cast crayons of varying colors and shades to produce a body of work that, to the best of my knowledge, is unlike anything done before in art. These individual “pixels” of wax are precisely stacked into specific locations inside of wooden frames to produce a new art form that uniquely balances the qualities of both photography and sculpture. Further, I have developed a mapping system that translates the English alphabet into twenty six discrete colors and I use these crayon “fonts” to add words and language to each of the pieces in the show.

something like this has been done before using cotton reels. The image is upside down however, and you look at the image through a magnifying glass.

I’m trying to find it, but i know i printed it off as part of one of my projects, i’ll try to find the image and artist. same concept, different medium. Crayons instead of cotton reels.
