Ian Berry, best known by the name Denimu, is a Sweden-based British artist who attracted widespread attention for his use of discarded denim jeans to create remarkably detailed pieces of art. His work often depict scenes of urban life or portraits, and are entirely composed of bits of varying shades of the fabric painstakingly glued together over the course of many weeks.

From the artist’s website: This is the guy who changed his stage name to Denimu and made a career out of turning jeans into works of art. Over many weeks he cuts, stitches and glues using only the varying shades of the fabric to provide contrast and shadow. The effect is amazingly detailed images, with a depth and texture that is hard to reproduce in print and online.
