Jay-z is the appropriate figure to break my typical medium of oil
paint. After 7,633 thumbtacks, this is what materialized: a piece illustrating
the idea that every line unveils a glimpse into who Jay-z is. This
collection of lines, like a collection of lyrics, comes together to
create a clear picture of Shawn Carter, one of the best of all time.
Time moves slower in this piece, as if you're watching his genius at
work. 20% of proceeds from original piece go to Harlem School of Arts.
"I’m in the hall already, on the wall already
I’m a work of art, I'm a Warhol already
On another level, on another plane already..." ~ Jay-Z
