This project took the phrase “Never Cut What Can Be Untied” and created a physical version through nail and string. I started with a 24″x48″ piece of wood, and spraypainted it black. After creating my guide, I nailed everything in and tied on all of the string. For the photoshoot, I used a large black light in order to illuminate the type. The specific nail size was chosen to create some slight anchor points within the final shoot due to their large nail heads. The string was chosen to be thick enough to be clearly illuminated in a photograph, but not too thick as to overpower the image. After approximately 400 nails and 200 feet of string, these are my process shots and my final result.
