Sometimes you just have to scratch your head in disbelief at the things artists do.  But at the same time you have faith that the artistic community is still thinking, dreaming and imagining.  I honestly don’t have any idea how an idea like this ever became a reality, but I am glad it happened.  From here on, the bizarre ideas I have won’t seem so unusual anymore.

A student from Japan’s Tama Art University came with the idea for a leg hair font, after his teachers asked him and his colleagues to create new typefaces without the help of computers.

Creating original letters without the use of digital design seems almost impossible in this day and age, and 20-year-old Mayuko Kanazawa started scratching her head for ideas the minute she heard about the challenge. She remembered seeing all kinds of letters, words and designs shaved into people’s heads, so she knew she wanted to work with hair, but she came up with the ultimate crazy idea only after a friend complained about a pain in her leg. Somehow she found the inspiration she needed in her friend’s leg hair, and the rest is history…
