I posted a while back that it seems like every week a new discovery is made about historically significant pieces of art, whether it be restoring, x-rays, or under coverings. Mona Lisa gets a new perspective...

Davention: Deconstruction/Construction
Davention: Deconstruction/Construction
Based on the sketches of Leonardo Da Vinci
Went to Goodwill, found an old alarm clock, took it apart, reconstructed it, and made a new design out of it. Giving new form to an existing appliance much in the same way a caterpillar becomes a butterfly.

from Some Prints
Leonardo da Vinci's 'The Mona Lisa' reduced and remixed down into 140 exact circles of color. A picture about the illusion of familiarity. Makes little sense close up. Makes every sense from the other side of the room. (Inspired by the thumbnails on the Louvre website - Sept 2009)

Da Vinci in the News
Every week on my news feed there seems to be a new secret discovery behind Leonardo da Vinci's "The Last Supper" or "Mona Lisa." I guess anything to keep art in the headlines...
