This abstract wall sculpture is made with 806 real casino craps dice, mostly from Vegas but also Atlantic City and other gambling destinations within the US. The iconic look of these professionally-manufactured dice is unmistakable. Unlike traditional gameboard dice, the casino variety features precision edges with embedded white dots on each face. The tolerances required to make these are heavily regulated by law. Most are the standard red but some additional colors like yellow and purple are peppered around the field. Like a shimmering Matrix screen, the dots cascade up and down in a mesmerizing digital pattern until reaching the busy center. Each die is attached with a screw (806 to be exact). I could have used some kind of glue but, with longevity in mind, preferred a mechanical fastener. Presented inside a custom walnut frame.
Medium:
Genuine Casino Dice, Walnut
Dimensions:
26” tall x 22” wide x 2” deep
