Lego Art


For my fifth topic I have decided to base it on the artist Nathan Sawaya who does Lego art.

Museum Overview
The element I find attractive and beautiful is the fact that someone could make such an amazing piece of work with just Lego. The pieces that Sawaya makes are quite incredible that sometimes it can be hard to believe they were originally just pieces of Lego. I like how he has made something that doesn't seem possible for it to be something as simple as a Lego block, it makes me think that he thinks in a different way to me. Sawaya gets inspiration to build things with Lego that many wouldn't think to do.
The text is important to a certain group of people and would depend on who you ask to determine whether or not it is important. Art can be appreciated by many, and what Sawaya has done is create sculptures, but not out of a material you would think an artist would use. This could change the reason why people would or would not like it. So the text can be important and valued only by people who like this form of art.
This text can be found possibly in magazines, only if a person was running an article about Sawaya and his art. The only other place it could be found is on the Internet on his personal website for his Lego art.
From what I have interpreted of the text, Sawaya enjoys his work. He puts a lot of time and effort into making his work and puts pride into it. He gets inspiration from his life and from browsing the web. He also gets his Lego from Target. Sawaya is an inspirational artist who makes some of the most amazing things.
