Forgotten - Michal Rejner

Fotgotten My artwork is a portrait of a man created from thin wooden slats of various shades. Up close, it appears as an abstract mosaic of wood, but the farther you step back, the clearer the face becomes. The materials come from recycled wood I found in an abandoned building in Chicago. I wanted to give them new life and meaning by transforming them into something that tells a story of change and the second existence of things once forgotten.
