I think this piece of lighted art looks cool, not sure I buy it as an “object of contemplation” as the article suggests.
Sayaka Ganz (Japan) - Emergence / Night
The Japanese sculptor Sayaka Ganz was born in Yokohama, grew up living in Japan, Brazil, and Hong Kong. Driven by a combination of the passion for fitting odd shapes together and a sympathy toward discarded objects, she creates animals from thrift store plastics:
“Building these sculptures helps me understand the situations that surround me. It reminds me that even if there is a conflict right now, there is also a solution in which all the pieces can coexist peacefully. Though there are wide gaps in some areas and small holes in others, when seen from the distance there is great beauty and harmony in our community. Through my sculptures I transmit a message of hope.”
