Original Woodcut Fantastic Garden Monumental Collaborative Puzzle Print Very Limited 92 International Artists

Fantastic Garden 2013 is a Monumental Collaborative Puzzle Print directed by Maria Arango Diener. All sales help us fund the next crazy project!

Briefly, a Monumental Puzzle Print is a large design composed of "puzzle pieces", each of which is designed and carved by a unique artist under a common theme. The project director designs and cuts the wood block into puzzle-like pieces, then sends the pieces to participant artists; they carve their own little design and send the tiny piece back. Then the director assembles the carved pieces. The entire design is printed as a woodcut print after the puzzle is reassembled and finally each participant receives a huge print encompassing the entire design.
