Jacob Dahlgren treats stacks of pencils like blocks of wood in his sculpture series, "Subject of Art." With each unit sharpened to a different length, the pencils stack on top of one another to create playful, geometric shapes with an Op Art element. Though the forms are quite simple, Dahlgren's choice of medium makes the series a whimsical exploration of how one can reconfigure basic shapes to creates something new.
