Rubik’s Cube Mosaic – Geek Art

Check out this piece of geek art. The mosaic pattern seen is made from multiple scrambled Rubik’s Cubes.

Solving Rubiks Cube Mosaic Geek Art

If solving the Rubik’s Cube was a challenge, imagine having to get the correct pattern on dozens of cubes to make a human face. This portrait artwork was done by online artist “Mad Maxine”.

Obviously something like this takes an amazing level of talent and you’ve got to be a top puzzle solver before you even consider undertaking this project. If you’re up for the challenge, but don’t have enough Rubik’s Cubes, take a look at the V-Cube.

    not really, no. once you’ve pixellated your image and reduced it to 6-bit colour it is very easy. most children can make one side of a rubiks cube into one colour, so this requires no knowledge of how to solve the cube at all, unless you want the edges to be a uniform colour (which would restrict your colour choices along the 3 cells next to the edges). the v-cube is a 7x7x7 cube with convex faces, which would in no way help you complete the mosaic with less cubes…
