It’s already been over a month since we had Nuite Blanche, our all-night arts festival here in Toronto. We were kind of reminiscing about it especially our chance encounter with Cube Works, a group that makes iconic pop pieces made entirely from Rubik’s Cubes (check out our previous post). We were really impressed by their work and Nick Hall, from Cube Works, has so kindly provided us a couple of pictures of how these pieces would look in your homes instead of on the midnight streets of downtown Toronto.
