Amazing artist. He must have many assistants to make such labor intensive beautiful art.

Fascinating and intriguing. Love the use of the old to make something new and thought provoking.

I was so impressed with his works.

[@jheckie14]

Not just original for the sake of originality, he tells a story with his art. Roots before branches.

What he does is destroy hundred year old stories for the sake of his own ego and vanity.

I like the idea but I can't imagine dismantling century-old books for something.

Curious, my 90 year old white european father just said the same. In despite I am not sure though what all culture is all about. In many cases it does really mean in my eyes that individuals are segregated. So it's perhaps worth trying, what he did.
