SCULPTURES

Name: Perspective SkyLineNature: 3-D Model, card-board, silicon, waste paper

Description: These pictures showed an orange wash with white patches, perhaps some letters, none of which makes sense.

But as one looks at the entire model, one notices a skyline, a cityscape, although with random shapes and letters with no meaning.

But when we look at it from a certain angle, we see:

The word ‘Amateur’ forms

Then, when we rotate it 90 degrees clockwise, we see the word ‘Expert’ forming:

This piece represents how One piece of work, when viewed by an amateur and when viewed by an expert, will have such

different thoughts and understanding. It represents difference in perspective.
