Big wall art: Puzzle


In creating this wall sculpture, I used styrofoam insulation panels that I glued together to make one big sheet (about 12 square feet) then cut a large circle from the styrofoam. Next, I tore pieces of brown craft paper and twisted it (to give it a wrinkled and leather-like effect) then proceeded to glue each piece of craft paper down overlapping the edges to cover the styrofoam. Having compeleted the paper over the foam and standing it up, I decided that a circle was just too "round" and hence cut it into puzzle pieces. I then painted the edges black and added some surface color.  Lastly, I mounted each piece on the wall in a random pattern.
