10 Fascinating Crowdsourced Artworks

Crowdsourced art is about inclusiveness, turning formerly passive audiences into active creators and empowering people who aren’t normally part of the art world. It also provides thousands of free (or cheap) man-hours to artists, enabling them to realize projects of stupendous magnitude. With a lot of crowdsourced art, “it would take one person 10,000 hours or a lifetime to create something like that on their own. It couldn’t be done,” says Koblin. “Crowdsourcing is creating something that’s greater than the sum of its parts.”
