But before knowing who he is, think about at least one way you could do with dice. The artist featured today thought about a multitude of shapes, sizes and forms covered in dice. His latest work speaks for itself.
British artist Tony Cragg recently unveiled a new sculpture at FIAC 2011 in Paris. His organic figures are composed by using dice – hundreds and hundreds of dice. These dice-covered shapes undulate creating a fascinating effect at a closer look.Throughout his long career as a visual artist, Tony Cragg has worked with a wide range of materials – from found materials in his early works to plastic, wood, bronze and marble.
