I was lucky enough to see the amazingly intricate work of the artist al souza this weekend. Truly remarkable. The pieces are created by cutting shapes out of different media (newspapers, maps, weather charts etc.) and then layering them, one on top of the other. Random, visual patterns emerge from the meticulous, obsessive process and the resulting "images" are absolutely breathtaking. I pinched a really terrific catalog of his work produced by the galveston arts center, so give them a holler to get one for yourself, if you so desire.
birdie, wow, thanks for the introduction to al souza! i'm blown away.
