Some artwork from Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Art...


These multimedia pieces were striking - although I admit that the description was not something I could really follow. But I found myself circling the installations to view them from different angles. I am not knowledgeable about art, especially pieces like these, but they were able to "draw me in". Perhaps that is what the artist was striving for.

    Those are freaky, they remind me of dead triffids.

    Haha, no, I don't really understand that description either, but that's probably not the point. In my current post I wrote that I don't have an intellectual approach to art, but a purely emotional one, and I think that's a form of approach that most artists can live with. It's good if you feel something about a work. I find them both very quirky, you could shower under them or be illuminated by them or even put them in a vase... ;-)
    All the best and a good new week, Traude

    These are fascinating - lovely but also a bit creepy. Very interesting.

    As you, not the arty type. This is rather strange and odd looking art, but as long as they enjoy what they are doing, who am I to say anything against it.Thanks, Sue, for hosting. Happy rest of your week
