But the artist Bradley Hart decided to go a completely different way. His main "canvas" is an air-bubble film. You know exactly what it is — when opening a parcel or a fragile product, you probably took out this film more than once, and then burst balloons with air on it with pleasure. But Bradley Hart does not burst - he makes pixel portraits of them.

The art project with packaging film and bubbles filled with paint is called Injections. The artist really has to inject each transparent pimple in order to inject paint of a certain color into it, or even mix several colors in it at once to get the necessary shade.
