“500 Pieces Of” is a project i started last year and involves 500 people (friends, family, people from my facebook list). I am giving each person a unique numbered print (of different sizes, up to 20×30 cm) and I will ask him/her to draw or write something connected to the printed image.
All pieces (a total number of 500) are cut off from a 400×300 cm photography and will be all puzzled together at the end of this year, revealing the final image.
Besides connecting people (creating a small community), this project is investigating the structure of an image, the relationship of different parts, the text-image interfference and the original work/copy dilemma.
It’s also spontaneous.
