Despite being a Taiwanese artist Pei-San Ng She holds a BA in Molecular and Cellular Biology from the University of California, studied interior design at Harrington College and architecture at the University of Illinois in Chicago, and is most attracted to creativity. She now works as a freelancer in architecture and web design and plays with matches in her free time. What comes out of this - look at the photos below. The girl composes various compositions from matches, and then burns them to the ground in order to show the fragility and transience of this, albeit original and beautiful, art. It's okay if the pictures remain only in photographs, and they cannot be touched, hung on the wall or placed on the bedside table. The main thing is that the impression of what he saw remains in the hearts, says Pei-San Ng.
So, her matchstick man has a golden (well, gilded) heart, from which rays-paths radiate out all over his little body. The heart will light up, the heart will burn - and the little man will instantly burn to ashes by himself. Not to mention the money, which, although it doesn't smell, burns great, and often a blue flame.
You can look at other works, not just matchstick miniatures, on the Pei-San Ng website.
