The eternally curious and productive artist injured himself by drawing too much on his wrist, so that, to continue creating while his wrist healed, he began to use salt, which he carefully sprinkled from a paper cone or plastic bottle onto a huge canvas and then redistributed with his fingers.
The new medium showed enormous potential, and Tomic soon devoted himself to exploring the possibilities of his new favourite technique with breathtaking results that earned him worldwide recognition.
Drawing with salt is no easy task - because of its incredible attention to detail, his realistic masterpieces made of salt can take many hours and days to complete. But in the manner of Tibetan monks who use colored sand to create beautiful mandalas only to destroy them in one breath a short time later, Tomic regularly inserts videos of him destroying the work he has spent so much time creating, which are both painful and liberating to watch. Take a look at his captivating artwork below!
