Nick Gentry’s Floppy Disk Portraits

Share:

Nick Gentry, a British artist whose work we discovered over on Lost At E Minor, uses old media like floppy disks, VHS tapes, Polaroids, and cassettes to create unique portraits that comment on waste culture, life cycles, and identity. Click through to check out some of his paintings, and if you like what you see, grab the coffee table book version here. (Note: All proceeds from the sale will go to Oxfam International.)
