Wild horses...

A series of mosaics of Ford Mustangs made out of pure asphalt.

This is a self-initiated project started last year. I had the good fortune to work at the new Ferrari headquarters in Maranello, and together with my friends at Foolbite, we developed a mosaic style we called Tarmac. The idea is pretty simple. We have created mosaics using different asphalt photos, along with lines and other road graphics. 
So I kept experimenting and creating mosaics over the last few months, but I decided to focus on a car I really love: the Ford Mustang.
I have printed these mosaics on mirrors. The reason for this choice is to create a contrast between the dark asphalt and the shiny metallic parts of these vintage beauties. See the movies and photos below.
So here are my wild street horses:

White and red convertibles.

The green and black mates. 

Sweet 70's

The metallic ponies...

Shiny beauties.

Catch me if you can.

The printing process

The mosaics are printed on real mirror by the great guys at QLTY.gr using a SwissQ Impala system (7 colors + White). The white colors is printed first on the mirror in various shades, rendering the solid white areas to non reflecting ones. Where there is no white color printed the mirror is reflecting the surrounding areas. All other shaded resulting in semitransparent - partially reflecting zones. 
See the videos.
