A month ago, I got commissioned to create a piece of art out of old and unwanted video game cartridges (think lots of Mary-Kate and Ashley Pocket Planners, and copious amounts of Madden 1996 games). JJ Games dreamed up the task of creating a 3D Samus Aran from the Nintendo game Metroid. 179 game cartridges later, and a few tubes of acrylic paint, she turned out just about five feet tall. I had a blast being creative with different materials and definitely used some of my former lego building skills. Thank you JJ Games for the commission and for supporting the arts!

I am not a big ‘gamer’ so I’m not sure what that is…but when I first saw it, Apolo Ohno popped into my head! Looks like a speed skater! :)
