When I was in college, back in 1994, I had this Chemistry lab teacher named EJ. He is so talented and I admire him so much. I saw this on his table inside the faculty room. I wanted to have a copy of it too, and he gave me one. So, what's so special about this Mona Lisa? Well, when you look at it closely, you would see that it's made out of letters. It's actually amazing for me. It's like a digital "cross stitch" of Mona Lisa, and I know only one person who has the patience to do this, and that would be Eric John, all for the sake of art.
I believe that among all of his students, only two of us got a copy of this. He imprinted my name on the copy that he gave me.
For more than 10 years it has been inside my closet, and seeing this again brings back old memories. I decided to keep this "relic." It's too precious for me to let go of it. Anyway, it would only take up so little space so it's ok to keep it. Maybe when I could get rid of the others. . . maybe.
