Portrait made of socks by Hong Yi



Portrait made of socks by Hong Yi
Apr 18
We featured Hong Yi’s portrait that was made from coffee stains on an earlier post. Now she is back again and this time she made one out of hundreds of socks. The portrait is an image of Chinese filmmaker Yimou Zhang. She said that she was inspired by the sight of socks hanging on bamboo rods to dry in the sun.

Hong Yi is a young Malaysian artist who “likes to paint, but not with a paintbrush.” Instead, she uses all kinds of unconventional objects like coffee-cup stains to produce a phenomenal portrait of Taiwanese musician Jay Chou.
This time she has created a portrait of a famous Chinese film director Zhang Yimou, by hanging hundreds of socks from a bamboo stick on an old residential alleyway.
