OodBird-LookingOutwards03

I must admit what compelled me most about this project was the visuals, both in the way it was documented and in the way in the sculpture itself. The lighting reminds of old movies with very harsh and artificial lighting and also desaturates all the colors making everything almost like a black and white film. I do not know what this would look like in person but in the documentation it looks very beautiful and compelling.

I think the construction of the piece is also interesting. The way the light reflects off the bottles makes them look like glass and gives them a sort of superficial or artificial elegance. Like they are being disguised as glass.

I appreciate the functionality of this piece as a sort of giant clock. Its subtle way of showing the passage of time really makes one think about our own lives.
