Game - What is this Work of Art Made From?

RE: Game - What is this work of art made from?
Is that like a huge bar of chocolate on the floor? I don't know, but I'm guessing that it's some kind of a food.

Annik, no, it's not toast.

Well done Annik.

Do you have a high-res version of it?

EDIT: I've seen this piece before, I swear it. I won't look it up until someone guesses what it's made from. I've seen this before, though, in one of my art history classes.

I was wondering too, because it looks like a 1888 picture of Billy the Kid to me...but that could be the trick ofcourse?

The thread reminds me of this news by the way...

I believe it is the artist as a child.

It looks familiar to me even and I am a noob with art. It is famous.

RE: Game - What is this work of art made from?
Correct. Those are dead ants.

Quote:That's not a typo: Chris Trueman, 31, has been known to use actual dead ants in his work -- 200,000 of them for one piece alone. It's a portrait he calls "Self-Portrait With Gun," and features his younger brother dressed up like a cowboy holding his dad's 22-caliber rifle. "It's based on a real incident," Trueman said.
