For this sculpture, I decided to take a geometric approach in the line work and construction of a human form. With this part 2D part 3D human form, I am attempting to create a confusing reality to the viewer so that there is a moment of uncertainty in the reality of their surroundings, unable to depict what is flat to the wall and what is extruded from. The transforming from 2 dimensions to 3 dimensions refers to the multi-dimensionality of the world we live in and our acute perception of this reality. The multidimensionality of the piece points to a lack of understanding of further dimensions in the human mind. By creating a optical illusion of the second and third dimension I am demonstrating how easily the human man can be deceived because of this lack of a multi-dimensional understanding.
