I chose this artwork because I like metal and this looked like something else when I first looked at it. At first I thought it was a mountain of steel plates and then I saw that it was a person that was just sitting there. I like how it is different as you walk around the sculpture, like maybe in one view the person is sad and lonely and then from a different direction, the person is just resting.
I think it is a successful piece of art based on Craftsmanship because there is obviously a high degree of skill used in creating this. it would be difficult to cut the metal, grind it smooth and then to place it so that it is level and stable. It is also successful based on Originality because it is unlike anything I have ever seen and because it gives the viewer a different sense of the sculpture as they walk around the piece of art.

It is a really interesting sculpture, Nick. I appreciate your analysis because you are looking at it both as art and fabrication. Nice perspective.
