1. What do you see when you look at this sculpture? Kind of an observatory. 2. What would you name this sculpture? Pillared Sky 3. Why? What is it about the sculpture that made you give it the name you did? Because it is like the sky with all of the constellations built upon pillars. |
4. What did the artist name it? Why do you think s/he gave it that name? He gave it the name Prophecy of the Ancients maybe because it could be like what ancient astronomers thought the sky looked like. 5. What do you like about the picture you took of the sculpture? I like the two trees on each side and the sky-blue background. | |
