Amazing Mosaic Made From Rubik’s Cubes

Using 4,242 Rubik’s Cubes, this incredibly awesome mosaic of Martin Luther King was created by artist, Pete Facteau. It took him (just) over 40 hours to construct this, plus 5.5 hours of final installation. The mosaic's weight was approximately 1000 pounds. Every cube was twisted or reversed to achieve this image. It was displayed at Art Prize competition in Michigan USA in 2010 from September 22nd to October 10th. About 30,000 enthusiastic guests came to see this mosaic at that time. The Rubik’s  cubes were rented at a cost of about $8,000 but the project’s total cost was around $9,000.
