Nathan Sawaya
(1)Previously a NYC corporate lawyer, Sawaya is the first artist to ever take LEGO into the art world and is the author of two best selling books. His unique exhibition is the first of its kind to focus exclusively on LEGO as an art medium and has broken attendance records around the globe. The creations, constructed from countless individual LEGO pieces, were built from standard bricks beginning as early as 2002.

(2)it takes ambition, Nathan Sawaya is the recipient of numerous awards and honors, recognizing his artwork and cultural achievements. In 2014, with the belief that “art is not optional,” Sawaya founded The Art Revolution Foundation, for the purpose of making art a priority in our schools and our homes. He has been a speaker at Google Zeitgeist, TEDx, Yahoo! and at the Clinton Library.

(3)I think technology helped this because now we have our first lego running car. there is no need for gas either, it runs on air. Another innovation is creating weapons and a machine in which it can solve a rubik's cube in 3.5 seconds. 

reflection: i admire him because he gave up his carrer for what he loves.
