Vik Muniz
January 17, 2010The Brazilian photographer Vik Muniz records his work as an artist. His unusual images capture him sketching the Mona Lisa in strawberry jam, depicting street children with sugar, painting Marilyn Monroe in chocolate or using such materials as garbage, barb-wire and spices to re-enact a famous work from art history. After getting messy, he documents his work for posterity with a photo. The resulting work becomes an engaging exercise in recognition for the viewer.
