The recent gallery had some interesting pieces... and then it had some pieces that weren't so interesting...
well for me.

This was my favorite piece in the exhibit. It consisted of four square frames with drawings of mathematical shapes in them. The most intriguing component was that in side the math signs were highly detailed drawing of scenery including dirt, oceans and forest landscapes.
Besides the obvious visuals, I enjoyed the concept that these drawings as a collection projected. I started t think of a fusion between two different elements in science and nature. In my opinion, there is a church- state separation like relationship when it comes to nature and science but in all actuality nature and science are complimentary to each other. I liked the way the drawings were placed on a clean white canvas and a clean square border; even the drawing were placed in a clean grid formation.

Then there was a piece or project that I was just confused about. It consisted of an old and rusted ice skating cleat placed to a yellow bunny mold.
Honestly, this piece was not appealing at all. It was a combination of two unrelated things and without a story to tell, they do not match together. I looked around the block it was placed on to see if there was a book or a catalog of some sort to tell the relationship between the two but there was not. So my confusion just took over and I walked away...
