I love art like this...

The artist is Tara Donovan currently on exhibit at The Metropolitan Museum of Art through September 21, 2008. You will never guess how this art is made, surprisingly it is meticulously designed out of Mylar tape! It looked like metal cookie cutter shapes glued to the wall when I looked at it up close and then my husband lightly blew on it and it shook. I love how the patterns on the wall change depending on how you look at it. I hope this gives you some sense of how Donovan's installation works. Click on the photos for more details.






Below, at this vantage point, the wall on the left has a fuzzy looking effect almost like a carpet.



Here you can see how the room actually looks as a whole.

What does this look like to you?
