Image Essay # 8

Unity and Varity is an interesting and difficult design choice for an artist. With the use of Unity and Varity comes many factors of decisions including balance, in all forms. I feel this piece is a successful piece on Unity and Varity in the fact that each mask and arm is completely different in shape and design but held together by the fact than a human can don this mask and arms. But what exactly is this piece trying to convey to us? I see it as somewhat as a costume design for a team. They all seem to position and poised to run or at a starting track. Their hands each designed differently to show each member of the team individuality and how they start the race. The colors might reflect the likes and dislikes of the team. Each person taking something special away from the team as well as giving color and meaning to team. In a whole Unity and Varity of the team is maintained through balance that were all a part of the human race we all give and take something away from the team. And all that matters is how we perform on the field of life.
