The Kim Kardashian LEGO Sculpture 'Bricks the Internet'
Meghan Young — November 17, 2014 — Pop Culture
The Kim Kardashian LEGO sculpture is a clever take on not only the iconic Paper Magazine cover shoot, but also the phrase that accompanied it around the World Wide Web. While her naked form may have 'broke the Internet,' this take on the images 'brick the Internet.' Focusing on the pose that started it all, the Kim Kardashian LEGO sculpture comes complete with black gloves and fabric as well as a big smile.
LEGO artist Ochre Jelly, who also goes by Iain Heath, the Kim Kardashian LEGO sculpture is very impressive. It would have been hard to imagine recreating such a detailed image, yet he managed to execute it perfectly, down to both of her big cheeks.
