Friday Favorite: Wataru Sakuma

5/16/2014

1 Comment

 
This Friday’s featured artist is Wataru Sakuma and his amazing Woven Cities!

For his map art, he utilizes newspaper because it contains information records history just like a map.
He puts newspapers in a blender with water to create pulp: the medium for drawing.
The pulp is placed inside a  ketchup dispenser to draw the lines of roads and side streets.
The map is then painted in acrylic. Some of these are as large as 4 x 8 feet!
Learn more about Wataru Sakuma and his map art on his website!
TGIF!
