In looking at additional artists using everyday materials for their art I came upon Mark Khaisman – a Ukraine-born artist who studied at the Moscow Architectural Institute. Now living and working in Philadelphia, Mark creates arts out of layers of packing tape on plexiglass that appears to be backlit.
My favorite series is the one that these images are from – though there are many others that are fabulous. I love the way that he represents the young, downtown-type of girl through tape so accurately. In this one it’s Ani and Sofie and I feel like I could know them.
The one above is Lara and Annie – again, they could be people I know or see out at bars in New York.
