The Abstract Works of Federico Uribe

Colombian born artist Federico Uribe is extremely talented and have done some amazing pieces of work. He began his career as a painter and then evolved to using found objects and industrial items in his work, creating assemblages that deserve attention.
In his Shoe Lace series, Federico created extraordinary paintings out of hundreds of colored shoelaces.

He also assembled colored pencils to create what look like paintings from afar.
