Sorry if this makes me sound like uncultured swine, but is this piece a reference to anything? Like did this artist want to do an homage to something else? Or is it just a bunch of random bullshit of varying shades of white placed into a concise pattern?
I like trying to interpret it more than having a solid interpretation.My mind goes to a overhead view of a building and some open field area separated by a road, or maybe s Walmart esque place separated by the road from its parking lot. Or maybe you're down town looking at the skyscrapers before you.I don't know what they wanted to convey, but I like examining what I get out of it.
