Christian Faur

Christian Faur is an artist who who
uses a number of different techniques and ideas in his work. The technique that struck me was his crayon-composite images.
His webpage states "Because of the three-dimensional nature of the crayons, the individual surface images appear to change form as one moves about the gallery space. The images completely disappear when viewed from close up, allowing one to read the horizontally sequenced crayon text and to take in the beautifully colored crayon tips"

Here are my favorite images~

  2. These are awesome. I remember seeing something similar as a kid on Mr. Roger's neighborhood.
