    Tribute to Steve Jobs

    By mmike  |  Posted October 8, 2011  |  Milledgeville, Georgia
     

    Sculptor Michael Murphy has created an iconic work depicting Steve Jobs.

     

    "I began designing this piece about two minutes after I heard the news of Jobs passing," he tells us. "It's an expanded graphic portrait of Steve Jobs rendered with bulletproof glass that I found in a dumpster. I worked on it non-stop for two days, finishing it on Friday.

    "Making a portrait of Steve seemed obvious and necessary. I've used his computers since he began making them. I have always used Apple computers to make my art. I am indebted to Steve Jobs for his creations and his inspiration. There are very few people I idolize in this world. Steve Jobs is one of them."
