Beauty is in the eye of the brick-holder
The last time we featured some LEGO artwork by Jarek Książczyk, it prompted all sorts of questions. He recently built two more, in what we’re told is definitely not becoming a series. The only question I’m prompted to ask is – why not?! They’re beautiful! We start off with a piece simply titled ‘Watchers’. This is actually a remake, of sorts; the first time Jarek built those little fellows, they were photographed on their own. This is the realisation of his full vision, and that brick-built sunset looks glorious!
However, we’re told that it was a real pain in the backside to work with! The parts for both the piece above and ‘The Last Piece’, below, are held in by only friction, gravity and the black frame. I really like the use of the Minecraft ‘eye’ plate for the skyscraper windows here.
In fact, that focal point in the middle kind of looks like an eye too. Combined with the Watchers and the first piece entitled ‘Come and See’, is sight the common thread that links all these pieces? That’s my interpretation, anyway. What do you see in these three LEGO paintings? Tell us in the comments!
