Shamshad is an artist located in Germany with origins in India, known for creating images using only text, a technique he has mastered since 1986.
His son, a Bitcoin maximalist (https://twitter.com/0711_BTC), has linked his father's impressive proof-of-work concept to Bitcoin.
These unique 'pictures' are composed entirely of alphabet letters without any additional pen strokes. The visual effects of light and shadow are artfully created through the expansion and compression of the letters. Over the years since 1986, Shamshad has crafted more than 200 such images.
Among these, the Bitcoin Logo stands out as one of his most challenging creations, accomplished at the age of 66. The Bitcoin Whitepaper has been incorporated as text in the artwork. With keen eyesight, one can read the artwork as if it were a page in a book.
The original artwork is handwritten in DIN A3 - this wooden artwork is laser engraved in DIN A2 - SatsConf Edition
