stuff I’m digging…sarah sze makes me want to make my art better

This work is really amazing. Sze makes these strange objects out of familiar and not so familiar debris. They seem awkwardly familiar. They are just vague enough to be interesting and whimsical enough to be fun. For me they beg exploring if you follow the link to her site check out the exhibition called “Powers of Ten” it’s like some kind of surreal archaeological dig. Her sculptures remind me of my childhood and making “set-ups” with my action figures in the basement. Some of the most inspiring work I’ve come across recently, Sarah Sze makes me want to make my art better.
