BALLS


1) what is this work made of?

At first glance it looks like it is made of glass. Then my gaze fell to the black 'liquid' and i wonder if it is possible for it to be glass? the way this sculpture looks like thick strong black bubbles bonding/merging together reminds me of the effect of glass blowing. each seperate 'bubble' must have been bonded together when it was still in molten state. then i think it was let to cool, resulting in partially joined black spheres.
Now it just looks like a bunch of grenades.

2) what i think the title is

Cranberries

3) what i think the artist wants to convey

Strength through unity
simplicity
the amalgamation of firms
newfound relationships

4) what i felt upon seeing this work

curious, amazed, stumped, determined, and a little bored after a long while

5) why i think it is suitable for public display

Because this sculpture is aesthetically pleasing to look at. its smooth and flawless surface easily complements its bare environment. One who walks past can easily dismiss it as just another sculpture, but some can stop and think about its abstract representation and wonder about the meaning behind it.
