Afghan Girl

Description

Introducing “Afghan Girl,” a stunning contemporary art piece measuring 64″ x 64″ overall and featuring artwork dimensions of 60″ x 60″. This unique mosaic was created using a total of 6,125 recycled computer keys from discarded computer keyboards, making it a striking and environmentally conscious statement piece. Inspired by the iconic 1984 National Geographic cover, this art piece pays homage to Sharbat Gula, also known as Sharbat Bibi, captured in a powerful photographic portrait by photojournalist Steve McCurry. The image is of an adolescent girl with green eyes in a redheadscarf looking intensely at the camera. The use of recycled materials and the timeless subject matter make Afghan Girl a captivating and thought-provoking addition to any contemporary art collection.
