Artist Statement:
This work combines and contrasts the highly architectural and sculptural materials of acrylic sheet and polished stainless steel with the ubiquitous, instantly disposable office Postlt note. Each red acrylic square holds a fresh, unmarked Postlt.
The work forces viewers to re-address their views on tough, structural materials and everyday, throw-away objects.
Technical Information:
Unable to produce large-scale sculpture in real time, Ed Eaton uses 3ds Max to produce virtual pieces of sculpture that look real but are unaffected by irritating real-world influences such as gravity.
Working in the CG world, complex pieces can be completed in a matter of hours, using any material, and at any scale.
