He could have used any paper I imagine but using real money really makes an emotional impact with almost everyone.
Now do it with one hundred dollar bills.

It is only illegal to deface or destroy United States currency with the intent to defraud.

They are visually stunning. As for the legality of it all, I'm sure they have better things to do right now, but here's something that I found. I'd like to see him make something with our Flag. I'm sure it would draw tons of attention and could convey a powerful message.

It's only illegal to alter money if you intend to use it as money again.

Awesome Stuff. Human Mind can be amazing. Even after doing so much with bills, still the artist seems to be using just 10% of his mind.
That means a guy like me uses the brain even lesser.
Imagine what designs this guy can produce if he uses even 20% of his brain.

I bought a piece from that show. It's not shown here though. The stuff is amazing. I emailed info@oh-wow.com and they got back to me pretty quickly and we did the transaction. The single stack pieces are 2500 as the triple stacks like the virgin Mary are 5000. Hope this helped.

how much ?
lalalinda 05.03.09
Yeah - good to see the American dollar is still useful for something. Rock on.
LisaMaria 05.03.09
Wow these are really great!

Oh brother, Mark. You got ripped off big time paying 2,500 for worth of bills that are now useless. Although they are admittedly cool, I don't see the big deal about making a laser stencil out of an EPS file and zapping a bunch of bills with it.

at first look resembling fabric patchworks, the portraits are actually created by the careful cutting and assembling of currencies from around the world.
