It was not solely for his grand vision - combining imagery of the early Spanish explorers who brought the horse to America five centuries ago, with representations of the Native tribes whose culture was radically changed by the horse - that this former fashion photographer turned pop artist received the award for the most ambitious Pony. To give his artwork monumental impact, George Monfils cover it with over a million and a half tiny Indian seed beads, applied one at a time!
