I admire the seamless continuity of the movement of the stairs that viewers expect to move upwards, but actually remain at the centre of the screen. When analysing how it works, I found that he may have achieved this effect by making the cubes move downwards constantly while resetting their locations when they move upwards to create another level. I admire the execution of this illusion and hope to apply it to my work as well.
I enjoy the cute humour in this piece and how Cindy plays with the dog’s snout that opens or unzips to reveal a cat. It provides an element of surprise because focusing on the snout is unexpected. Cindy’s manipulation of the rectangular yellow background emphasises the movement of the cat revealing and unrevealing itself.
I am intrigued by the detail of the organic rock formations that seem to connect seamlessly into a loop. Due to the more natural and realistic looking formation, I think Andreas Wannerstedt successfully created something timeless and surreal.
