The paintings in the space of toothpicks and nails

Wednesday, October 10, 2007












Today’s collaboration with Cellar Image of the Day brings us this photo of an artwork-in-progress by Albanian artist Saimir Strati.

Albanian painter Saimir Strati works on a horse mosaic using toothpicks at the International Center of Culture. Strati will use around 1,000,000 toothpicks on an 8 square-metre polystyrene board in an effort to secure a place in the Guinness World Record.

If the guy looks familiar, that’s because he was on Neatorama before for the world’s largest nail mosaic: an image of Leonardo da Vinci.
