Artist, Bradley Hart, takes creativity to a whole new level
with his unique paintings that incorporates bubble wrap as a canvas. Hart, who
lives in Toronto but works in New York City, creates portraits of celebrities
by tediously injection acrylic paint into bubble wrap, thus creating a unique
pixelated effect. On average, each painting takes about 150 hours. Hart admits
that the process of injecting each bubble with paint is a daunting task –
injecting too quickly could destroy the bubble while injecting too slow does
not fill the bubble completely. It takes him two to three days just to load the
paint into the 1200-1500 syringes that is needed to make one portrait.
Perhaps one of Hart’s most popular bubble wrap portrait is
of the late Steve Jobs. Hart injected over 16,000 bubbles using 89 different
colors of paint to create this one-of-a-kind portrait. Bradley Hart’s
collection called “Injections” can be seen in person at Gallery Nine5 in New
York.
