a very very very large creative expression

June 25th, 2008

Whoa!!!

This is crazy…and it was made by a single person!!!

Jim Denevan made the world’s largest freehand drawing on a dry lake in Nevada. How big is it? Three mile across, which took 100 miles of walking to draw the pattern.

“It is really really big. My first attempt at a place so large. I think it represents about seven or eight days of walking”, says Devevan.

Even though esthetically it’s a welcome addition to the landscape, it is also a sort of a transient mark-like a cloud, or a river-bed.  Immense in its scope, and lasting only a moment in the large scale of things.When asked how long did this stupendous artwork last, Jim replied…”It was completely erased in a rainstorm the next week.  It felt strange to work so hard and not see the tide come in.  But rains did come which is sort of the same thing.”

Whoa!!!

Whoa!!!

Whoa!!!

    I love when people find the vision to think big. Really big.
