For the month of January, we welcome Brandon O'Neill to the Green-Mezzanine Gallery!
Brandon O’Neill is a Richardson based mixed-media artist known for large-scale Rubik’s Cube mosaic portraits. He is currently the only known artist to break into this higher order medium using the 5×5 “Professor’s Cube” as a primary canvas. This approach allows for a level of color density and visual resolution that shifts the genre.
By moving from the traditional 3×3 cube to the 5×5, Brandon works within a combinatorial space that expands to over 280 trevigintillion possibilities. A leap so large it defies known comparisons. Brandon’s mosaics are assembled by hand, cube by cube, tile by tile, face by face. From a distance, the work reads as a unified portrait; up close, it reveals a complex field of decisions.
"By embracing this complexity, I’m not just creating a more detailed image; I’m inviting viewers to see how structure and possibility can transform a familiar object into something entirely new. It’s a meditation on how increasing resolution can reveal new truths, both in art and in how we see the world." - Brandon O'Neill
