Pixel People by Various Artists

Using people as medium to portray a larger image is nothing new. In the latter part of the 1900s, photographers Arthur S. Mole and John D. Thomas took photographs of meaningful symbols and insignia made up of meticulously arranged military personnel. It was their contribution to the war effort during the first world war. Sometimes, it is to increase awareness about something like what the three thousand Korean students did at a ski resort in Pyeong Chang, South Korea. They formed a human drop of blood to celebrate World Donor Day. Photographers like  Craig Allan and Spencer Tunick on the other hand, like to make human murals on a grand scale.
