About Imagination and Reality Il·lustració
Aquest gran vinil de finestra il·lustra on la realitat i la imaginació es fusionen per crear una impressió de la vida d'un individu després d'una intervenció mèdica. La il·lustració s'adhereix al vidre a l'interior d'aquest impressionant edifici, amb una alçada superior als 10.000 mm. Aquesta obra d'art es va crear pensant en l'accessibilitat. L'obra està instal·lada en un espai de finestra perquè els espais de finestra es poden veure des de l'exterior de l'edifici. Per tant, els membres del públic que visualitzen la imatge poden quedar-se al seu cotxe per veure-la si les seves limitacions físiques ho requereixen.
