In the Mood for Love No. 25783

Description

This was a custom piece that was never picked up and never paid for. Thus this is your lucky day. This is a miniature poster from the movie, "In the Mood for Love" I never saw the film, but the young lady that wanted this piece had the Chinese characters tattooed on her arm. She really loved the film. Size 5 3/8"x 6" on 60mil archival magnetic vinyl.

Since 1996 I have signed and numbered over 29,700 pieces. I was drawn to the magnetic media, because no other artist was using it the way I was. I saw other artist sticking a magnet to their art, I thought why not stick my art to the magnet. 12 years later I have found a few other artist using the magnetic vinyl in their own way, but no other artist in the world has used it like me. Everybody's style is unique. I still haven't found another magnet artist as prolific as myself.

If you look up my last name, Gauss, in the dictionary, it actually means unit of magnetic energy. I'm a distant cousin of the mathematician Karl Friedrich Gauss. He discovered the mathematical theory of magnetism. So in a way I'm following my destiny.
