Miss Sparkle Sprinkles Magic
In this photo series called Wonderland (2005), Korean photographer Yeon Doo Jung brings children’s drawings into life – literally – by staging the scene with real people and props.
The whole idea and execution are wonderful: Link [Flash, use the green arrow to navigate]- via metafilter

Looks like Miss Sparkle set fire to the forest.
What a stupid concept.

There is an artists who does a similar thing with jewelry. She would turn a child’s drawing into a silver pendent. very cool!

link wasn’t working for me when I tried (maybe too much traffic). But I wanted to point out, that this isn’t a “new” idea. Dave Devries made the rounds on the internet years ago with this idea. I imagine this photographer simply saw someone elses idea and decided to profit.

Don’t you hate it when someone steals your idea?

What the hell are you talking about? Dave Devries does drawings, Yeon Doo Jung uses photography. I personally think it would be harder to stage these and take photos than to draw them. In any case, it’s not a rip-off, it’s a completely different medium.

Nothing says “art” like some kids scribbling turned into a crappy photo.

I wonder how this person would interpret my one year old daughter’s lines and circles. I would have said maybe train tracks…the map of downtown…spaghetti…That would be awesome.
