Spanish artist Jaume Piensa has created a shell of a human body constructed entirely out of letters entitled, Nomade. The sculpture is a figurative display of how the artist states as,
I always imagined that our skin is permanently tattooed with text – our life, our experiences – tattooed, but with invisible ink. And then suddenly, somebody is able to decipher these tattoos; that person becoming a lover, a friend. That is probably why I work with sculptures like this, this human form composed solely of letters, like cells. It’s almost biological.
Its hollow typographical makeup is really what makes this piece unique as it allows spectators to walk right in since there is no finished face, or feet.
