Korean-born artist Ran Hwang uses pins and buttons to create these unique artworks :)
She hammers thousands of needles into a wall and hangs colorful pins from them.
“My immense wall installations are extremely time consuming and repetitive manual work. This is a form of meditative practice that helps me find my inner peace. Like the monks practicing Zen facing the wall, my work is a form of performance that leads to finding oneself.” Hwang said.
She uses buttons as an art medium because "they are common and ordinary, like the existence of human beings”. She uses no glue in her art, so the buttons are free to move or fall at any time, which reflects the irresolute nature of human beings.

Art is a collaboration between God and the artist, and the less the artist does the better. ~André Gide
