This work by Vik Muniz was done in 1994 and the series was Thread. This artwork is done completely out of thread and is called, Le Songeur, after Corot. It contains 16200 yards of string. I picked this piece because of its incredible originality and attention to detail. I think this piece is hard enough to draw, where there is optimal control over artwork, and yet Muniz does this piece with thread, manipulating the medium to mimic a sketch. A very original method and a very unconventional piece of art.
