Best. Sculpture. Ever.

Solitaire sculpture by Skrekkøgle

If you don’t know what this is… well, first of all, what planet do you live on? Your mom probably even knows what this is. And now someone has made a 3D sculpture based on this classic Microsoft/PC animation.

Whenever the Windows 3.x classic Solitaire game ended in victory, the player was rewarded with this cool animated effect where the playing cards bounce-bounce-bounced across the screen, leaving trails behind. Design/art collective Skrekkøgle created this 3D sculpture using more than 1,000 pixelated, custom-made cards attached to cut-apart black foam board. Then it was just a matter of piecing them together into the appropriate shape. They even printed and affixed a customized Solitaire desktop background behind it.

The finished sculpture is huge, measuring nearly 5 feet wide by 2.3 feet deep by 1.3 feet high. Sadly, only one was made, and it’s not for sale. More pics below.
