Designer Creates Brilliant Portraits Using Tulle Fabric

When someone wants to create a portrait, they usually turn to paint and brush as a means to do it. Multidisciplinary artist Benjamin Shine, however, decided to take a different approach.

Shine is known for his pioneering work with tulle fabric, which he uses to create brilliant portraits and other creations. Using an iron, the artist presses and folds the tulle, shaping it into highly detailed artwork. His works are even more impressive when you know that he creates them from a single piece of fabric.

According to the artist, his works “represent mindfulness, meditation and the notion of finding clarity out of chaos.”

Check out some of Shine’s creations below.
