I am loving these sculpted portraits of famous people created by photographer Philip Karlberg for Plaza Magazine. Mr Karlberg used approximately 1200 carefully arranged wooden pins and clever lighting to recreate faces of “classic wearers of sunglasses”. Scuplting and shooting took 6 days for the 6 faces.Now, I must admit I am having trouble identifying all the wearers. I (think) can make out Karl Lagerfeld, Anna Wintour, Johnny Depp and Lady Gaga. Do you know who the other two are?[via HUH.] Share the love:FacebookTwitterLinkedInEmailPinterest 8 Responses Sophie May 24, 2012 Jack Nicholson in the ray bans! And isn’t that Jackie O second one down? Reply kate May 24, 2012 not Anna Wintour, Jackie O, I think. And Quentin Tarantino. The last one’s the killer though. Reply Gill May 24, 2012 Maybe Jacqueline Kennedy is the second and Elvis on the end??? Fantastic portraits either way. Reply Gill May 24, 2012 OOOOOOH Is that the lovely Jack Nicholson above Elvis?
