Taiwanese artist simulates ink painting with nail gun
Last Updated(Beijing Time):2012-07-21 14:55

Taiwanese artist Chen Chun-Hao works to copy a traditional Chinese ink painting with mosquito nails at his workshop in Taipei, southeast China's Taiwan, June 16, 2012. Chen Chun-Hao is a Taiwanese artist who replaces paintbrush with nail guns in copying the traditional Chinese ink paintings. He uses a nail gun to shoot thousands of small mosquito nails, or headless nails, into a canvas-covered wood board to reproduce traditional Chinese ink masterpieces. Looking from a certain distance, these nails on the wood board together form fine lines and delicate shadows under the light. But looking closer, the nails' sharp metallic nature come forth. For the young artist, this kind of imitating is not a way of simple copy but recreation. He tried to look for the possibility for creation within the physical limitation of certain materials.
