Eric Daigh
Eric Daigh is an American artist based in Traverse City, Michigan. He gained acclaim in 2009 when he won third place 〔Kaczmarczyk, J. "ArtPrize's push-pin 'Portraits' by Eric Daigh featured on CBS Sunday Morning", November 30, 2009, "()", July 19, 2010〕 for his pushpin portraits in the Inaugural ArtPrize competition in Grand Rapids, Michigan. His artwork displays a strong sense of play and uses a variety of unorthodox and unconventional everyday life materials including pushpins and Post-It notes.〔McCray, V. "ArtPrize winner won't be pinned", April 23, 2010, "()", July 18, 2010〕 ==Artwork== Eric Daigh’s artwork combines creativity along with hours of diligent application. As a process artist, his work starts with taking a series of photographs of his subject. After carefully analyzing the photos, he uses a computer and specialized software to break an image down to a very low resolution and forces the computer to make the image out of only five colors (red, blue, yellow, black and white).〔CBSNews. "Push Pins and No Paint", July 11, 2010, "()", July 19, 2010〕 He then uses a grid map to show where to stick the pins row by row. At first glance, Daigh’s artwork appears to be a low-resolution portrait, but upon closer inspection, onlookers can see each piece is made up of thousands of colored pins. Many of his art pieces use over 11,000 pushpins to complete a three-foot by four-foot piece and as many as 25,000 pushpins for a four-foot by six-foot piece.〔Moye, D. "Artist Eric Daigh Creates Portraits With Pushpins", 2010, "()", July 19, 2010〕 In Summer 2010, Daigh surpassed his own world record by creating a commissioned pushpin piece for automaker Acura, which used 109,687 pushpins.〔Taylor, J. "Daigh's world-record push-pin art", July 7, 2010, "()", July 20, 2010〕
