For this piece I want to explore the relationship between a sculpture's scale and its surroundings. Jean-Desire Ringel d’Illzach’s Vase is monumental in size. It fits within the high ceiling gallery room perfectly. For my installation, I projected multiple models of the vase onto a large wall at the Getty’s main entrance hall. The projections were larger than the original vase reaching up to 22 feet tall. Viewers were encouraged to approach the virtual images and explore their own relationship to the vase as its scale and rotation changed.
