The Floppy Disk Art of Nicky Gentry

Nicky Gentry has found a new purpose for the long obsolete floppy-disks that were once so useful as data-storage devices.

But that was oh so long ago, in the 80s and 90s, and today a floppy disk wouldn’t be able to store your favorite photo. But artist Nicky Gentry found a way to give these seemingly-obsolete mediums a new meaning. He use floppy disk to express his artistic talent and express the idea that modern life moves at in increasing pace, where things are quickly created, used and disposed of.
