This 33-year-old New York artist is exhibiting more than thirty works created solely from standard LEGO bricks over the period 2002 – 2007 with several new ones created specifically for this exhibit. Nearly one million colorful LEGO pieces transformed into whimsical and awe-inspiring images are on display.
