“I like using LEGO bricks as a medium because I enjoy seeing people’s reaction to artwork created from something with which they are familiar. …My goal is to elevate this simple plaything to a place it has never been before. I also appreciate the cleanliness of the LEGO® brick. The right angles. The distinct lines. But, from a distance, those right angles and distinct lines offer new perspectives, changing to curves.” PeopleEnjoyGoalLinesSimpleSeeingPerspectiveOffersAppreciateDistanceReactionsFamiliarMediumsAngleCurvesBricksCleanlinessArtworkNew PerspectiveLegos Author:Nathan Sawaya
“’The Art of the Brick’ exhibition is accessible because it engages the child in all of us while simultaneously illuminating sophisticated and complex concepts. Everyone can relate to the medium since it is a toy that many children have at home. But my goal with this exhibition when it first debuted in 2007 was to elevate this simple plaything to a place it has never been before.” FirstsChildrenArtHomeGoalSimpleConceptsComplexesMediumsRelateToysSophisticatedBricksExhibitionsIlluminating Author:Nathan Sawaya
