The original string art technique that created this stunning piece involves wrapping several kilometers of a continuous mono-thread around an evenly spaced circle of 200 aluminum pins. Imagine, how the same string that produces only random noise around the image suddenly condense and accurately repeats the complex shape? As if by the creator's plan, the string meticulously draws the figure in the air, and from this unifying beginning, the entire piece is interconnected... 

The Nature of Temptation #2

Adam touching the void is a rethinking The Creation of Adam by Michelangelo, reflecting on current state of affairs with regard to understanding and acquisition of God by man.

The original string art technique that created this stunning piece involves wrapping several kilometers of a continuous mono-thread around an evenly spaced circle of 200 aluminum pins. The thread cross, re-cross, and crisscross a circular area above the flat wooden board. The image within the circle is achieved by the painstaking and complex choice of thousands of connections between the pins. After the first 30 connections that make up the image, the number of possible knitting variants exceeds the number of atoms in the Universe! So it’s simply impossible to reproduce this artwork by guesswork or to untangle it with your mind...

Rethinking The Creation of Adam

This Salvador Dali photorealistic image is surrealistic in the way it is obtained. The portrait is weaved with about 2000 meters of continuous string along 200 aluminum rivets on the circumference. This majestic "holographic" string art technique resembles the thread of dream, that knits fancy shapes of fantasy, or the legend about Moirai threads of life from ancient mythology.


SALVADOR DALI STRING ART PORTRAIT

This portrait of a beautiful Armenian girl with a fascinating glance was made during a specially organized extensive video session, which resulted in an amazing video that immerses the viewer deep into the weaving process.

Just think, by what kind of magic does the same string that produces only random noise around objects suddenly condense and accurately repeats their complex shapes? That's quite amazing... The string meticulously draws figures in the air, and from this unifying beginning, the entire piece is interconnected... even the smallest element is an inseparable part of the whole, which brings up deep symbolic meaning to the artwork.
