The crossing paths of one-line art and photography bring together two historical names: Gjon Mili and Pablo Picasso.

Mili was a famous photographer who came up with the idea of connecting lights to a figure skater’s skates. The outcome was interesting one-light art, which he took to Pablo Picasso.

Picasso looked at the photos and gave Mili 15 minutes to test out the idea of him drawing with a small light pen. They were both happy with the results, and you now can find a few photos of this collaboration in the archives.
