These look like ink drawings, but they were created with nails (13 images)

That’s right, these works by artist Chen Chun-hao were created using nails – by way of nail gun – instead of ink.  The effect is almost a ghostly image, something that at first appears to be ink, but upon closer inspection lacks the crisp, clear lines indicative of ink drawings.

It’s a great concept, and I’m always intrigued by works of art where everyday items sort of take on the role of pixels in a digital image to create a larger work of art.
