Oh no not for me at all. While I think the eyes look great as an art exhibition I can’t imagine wanting to hang them in my own home. Also eyes are VERY difficult to do and need highly skilled artists to do them on that scale. Most people’s would end up looking creepy I think..

I admire the technical ability, but all those eye quilts just seem rather unnerving to me!  :S

Interesting idea though, and I like the thinking behind it.

Reminds me of the Police song " I'll be watching you " Sting said it was a stalker song but it was still the most popular choice for wedding dances  :D
I hate those eyes and can't even look at them again :ninja:

I'm with the others - not what I would want on my wall, and a difficult subject to get looking right.

But @Iminei I am looking forward to seeing the pics your interpretation.
