Scotch Tape Sculpture Contest, America - May 2012

One Octopus Band by Lila F from Omaha, NE using 55 rolls of Scotch Packaging Tape
Sensational Scotch Tape Sculptures
Artists have been thinking outside the box with sensational sculptures made from Scotch packing tape.
The brand's annual contest has seen amazing entries including a life-size mermaid and full-scale car.
The U.S. firm set customers the challenge of creating imaginative art pieces just using rolls of the sticky tape.
Over a hundred entries, and 30,000 votes later, Jake Longenecker from Manheim, Pennsylvania scooped the $5,000 cash prize with Free Fallin', a skydiver made from 15.5 rolls of tape and inspired by WWII era paratrooper.
Jake explains: "My objective was to capture the action and intensity of such a simple and graceful act, such as falling through the sky. I accomplished this by uniformly wrapping parts of my own body with tape, which were later assembled into the skydiver."
Abigail Colety from Austin, Texas, won $1,000 as runner-up for Game Night, a depiction of two people playing draughts made using 9 rolls of tape.
Other entries included a bicycle, Spider-Man, Michelangelo's Creation of Adam, a ballerina on a tightrope and several dogs.

Barcode Art by Scott Blake, Omaha, Nebraska, America - 2011
FULL WORDS LINK: http://www.rexfeatures.com/nanolink/bi16
Arnold Schwarzenegger has a price on his head - in the form of BARCODES.
An artist has created mind-bending portraits of famous faces from the product price scanning codes.
Scott Blake has made pictures of personalities by building up blocks of barcodes to form features.
His work includes Madonna, Elvis, Bruce Lee, Marilyn Monroe and Oprah Winfrey.
Scott, of Omaha, Alaska, cleverly uses codes relevant to the person he is portraying. Madonna and Elvis are built up from codes from their music CDs, while Bruce Lee and Marilyn use barcodes from their film DVDs.
