Bradley Hart's Protective Portraits

By Rain Noe - March 27, 2013

in Fine Art

Okay, does anyone want to guess how artist Bradley Hart made these portraits? Any clue what those pixels are, arranged in that neat hexagonal pattern you've clearly seen before?

Even if you puzzle out that Hart can buy some of the raw materials for his work at the UPS store, you'll probably not guess how he added the color. Hit the jump to see.Well, Hart, maniac that he is, painstakingly injects acrylic paint into each bubble with freaking syringes.

Fittingly called his "Injections" series, parts of them will be on display at Bradley's upcoming "What? Where? When? Why? How?" solo show at New York's gallery nine 5.

Wonder what they wrap the works in during transport.

Very clever use of an everyday material. You have to admire his creativity.
