Interesting though.

The creators' actual website popped up in this thread:

http://news.lugnet.com/mediawatch/?n=889

The general thought seemed to be "It's cute, but waaaaaay overpriced".  I mean,
I can look at the shark tank MOC and build an exact duplicate for under $15 by
buying everything off of Bricklink (not including S&H or minimums), and that's
even with having to buy a full minifig just for the shirt.  Granted, I  wouldn't
have ever thought to do this myself, but it seems to me that they're geared
primarily towards people who love modern art more than people who love LEGO art.

I bet LEGO didn't supply any bricks for that one (could be wrong, who knows)

Lovely sculpture though :)

Due to http://f24.parsimony.net/forum61776/messages/76119.htm
she bought half of it, the art school provided the other half.

Maybe they got a discount from LEGO ...
