Attention to Detail
Acrylic, Paper, Shell, Electrical
1" Box Frame 1020x720
In life generally through-away as it is, we charge ahead oblivious to the
beauty surrounding us each day. From the smallest beetle to the strongest
perfumed flower. Even our peaceful interaction with others. I wouldn't want
to overlook such moments. I hope this artwork goes some way in inspiring
others to better observe their own surroundings.
The large elegant box-frame draws you into its centre. Its key feature too
small to see from a far. The viewer approaches looking deep into the frame.
Concealed inner lights shine, revealing an extraordinary shell. Perfect
in its form. Beautiful in its colour and Persian like pattern. Most viewers
skip all these aformentioned details. The hand written inscription, below
right reads 'So obsessed with the big picture, we overlook beauty in detail'.
The majority of viewers comment on experiencing a sense of guilt having
committed the very sin this piece is aiming to expose. I enjoy playing with
words and images. Creating second and hidden meanings. Utilising electrics,
lights and motors if appropriate. The concealed lighting system in this
piece is activated by a small side button, promoting viewer interaction.
