About Scott


Scott Gundersen creates his portraits from thousands of used and recycled corks.

Starting with a large photograph that is transferred to a drawing, Gundersen pins each cork to the canvas, creating a correlation between the hues of the wine-stained corks and the value of light or shadow in the portrait.

Some of his larger works have required over 9,000 corks.
