4x4 Eyes

During the creation of both 2x4 Eyes and 4x4 Eyes, I was very focused on the micro and the split, stack, and shading of each cell. Only when I finished did I realize the piece was looking back at me. And the childhood taunt took on a new and mesmerizing shape. Hard to capture with photos, this piece is highlighted with metallic ink that flashes and winks as your relative position changes. While it's fun to zoom in on all the dots, the true impact of these pieces appears when you get some distance from them and relax your eyes. So step back from your screen or hold your phone at arm's length. You'll find that more shadow and depth jumps out that way. What do you see? Remember? Imagine? Where does the piece take you?
