1229 They Did


sold Tonight, I saw the artist, Vik Muniz, give a talk at BU. Back in post #1132, I was impressed by a documentary about him called, "Wasteland." In the film, the artist returns to his native country, Brazil, and creates artwork around a group of landfill scavengers. Tonight's talk showcased this as well as other pieces he created, like, Couds. The piece, "Clouds," is just this, a line drawing of a cloud in the sky. The drawing itself mimics that of a child's interpretative line drawing but it is drawn by a sky writer. still life, acrylic, 6" x 6"
