Everyone wants to know more about Ellen Grossman, the woman Jay-Z spoke with during his subway adventure in October.
In the video that's going viral, Grossman asked Jay-Z what he did for a living, but he never asked her occupation in return.
Well, it turns out Grossman's an artist and sculptor.
We tracked down her art portfolio online and found Grossman discussing her work in depth on YouTube. She works primarily with aluminum screening and metallic gel on paper to create her drawings and sculptures.
We're in awe by the complexity of her work.
Grossman's drawings and sculptures are based on topography. This piece called "Subsequent Hills" is based on the geological formations of the Rocky Mountains.
It's made with metallic gel on blue paper. Grossman notated the dates on each end of this piece to show when she started and ended a line.
Here's another drawing in the same style called "Whatever Can Go Wrong" that took Grossman more than a year to complete.
