Pieces Project is an experimental art/ comics project. It was initiated in 2006 by a Polish artist Jakub Mazerant.[1]
Pieces Project involves various artists working on one comic book. Each artist creates only one panel ("piece") of the story. There is no script provided. The story evolves with each and every panel.
