Pop Culture Stained Glass: 1,000 Year Old Craft Makes A Comeback

3 comments

July 25, 2008

Stained glass, usually confined to church windows and depicting biblical scenes has been popping up in new contexts. The ancient art has recently been used to illustrate pop culture icons and modern icons such as Albert Einstein, Darth Vader and Spiderman. Deputy Dog has a fantastic gallery that surveys the geeky revival of this archaic art form.

Deputy Dog’s gallery is nice. Megaman is more of symbolic but simple way of expression and pixels is bit of complicated.
thanks
