Pandarok: The Birth of Kangis Khan

"The Shining Mantis, a Brooklyn-based artist pair, consists of former Workspace residents Ernest Concepción and Mike Estabrook. Last Thursday, we invited them to our office to create a work that became Pandarok: The Birth of Kangis Khan, a 10 foot by 7 foot chalk drawing on a wall adjacent to our conference room. They arrived at 11AM and worked until about 7:30PM, during which we snapped a picture every 30 seconds.  Here's the creation of Pandarok: The Birth of Kangis Khan in 34 seconds."

You might catch a glimpse of me in the video, but don't strain, the building of the image is the video's most engaging aspect...
