From the Ted Talk by Daniel Lismore: My life as a work of art

Unscramble the Blue Letters


There's over 6,000 pieces in my coltecoiln, ranging from 2,000-year-old Roman rgins to ancient busddiht acfitrats. I believe in sharing what I do and what I have with others, so I decided to create an art etxbhioiin, which is currently traveling to museums around the world. It contains an army of me — life-size sculptures as you can see behind me, they're here — they are my life, really. They're kind of like 3-D tapestries of my enexctise as living as art. They contain plastic crystals mixed with diamonds, beer cans and royal silks all in one look. I like the fact that the viewer can never make the assumption about what's real and what's fake. I find it irmpanott to explore and share cultures through my works. I use clothing as a means to investigate and appreciate people from all over the world.

Original Text


There's over 6,000 pieces in my collection, ranging from 2,000-year-old Roman rings to ancient Buddhist artifacts. I believe in sharing what I do and what I have with others, so I decided to create an art exhibition, which is currently traveling to museums around the world. It contains an army of me — life-size sculptures as you can see behind me, they're here — they are my life, really. They're kind of like 3-D tapestries of my existence as living as art. They contain plastic crystals mixed with diamonds, beer cans and royal silks all in one look. I like the fact that the viewer can never make the assumption about what's real and what's fake. I find it important to explore and share cultures through my works. I use clothing as a means to investigate and appreciate people from all over the world.
