About Imagination and Reality Ilustrație

Acest decal mare de fereastră ilustrează modul în care realitatea și imaginația se îmbină pentru a crea o impresie a vieții unui individ după o intervenție medicală. Ilustrația aderă la sticlă pe partea interioară a acestei clădiri impresionante, măsurând peste 10.000 mm în înălțime. Această operă de artă a fost creată având în vedere accesibilitatea. Opera este instalată într-un spațiu de fereastră deoarece spațiile de fereastră pot fi vizualizate din exteriorul clădirii. Prin urmare, membrii publicului care privesc imaginea pot rămâne în mașină pentru a o vedea dacă limitările lor fizice necesită acest lucru.
