Stockholm artist Aleksandra Stratimirovic formed the above image from many small containers upon a grid-like shelf -

"Sunny day" is an installation made of 4464 small medical glass vials filled with different coloured liquids, in a sterile laboratory framework with a fluorescent backlight. When taking a couple of steps back the vivid image of a girl appears, standing at a lakeside, with summery blue sky above. Dimensions 2 x 3 meters.

He's a she.
She's from Serbia living i Sweden and if I'm not mistaking it's a "shelf"-portrait
