Artist and designer Pete Fecteau has created a unique tribute to one of the greatest men of the century. He spent a lot of time last year to work on “Dream Big” a portrait of Martin Luther King Jr created using 4,242 Rubik’s Cubes, weighing in at 1000 pounds and measuring 20 feet wide and 10 feet tall.
According to Fecteau, the impetus for the project came from a dream of his own: “I woke up from the dream and it was like I was on fire. I spend three hours that morning writing down the concept and brainstorming. When I stepped back I realized how bat-s*** crazy it was but there was something pushing me to make it a reality. Sometimes I don’t think I woke up from that dream. It still seems crazy.”
