1200 ping pong balls create optical illusion
Artist Michael Murphy is known for his three dimensional renderings of flat images (see his sculptural portrait of President Obama), and large scale public installations. His latest work “Damage” is a sculpture composed of 1,200 suspended black ping pong balls which, when viewed from the right angle, form the shape of an assault rifle. The project is meant as a catalyst for a wider discussion on the controversial role guns play in today’s society

Dillion Marsh’s Invasive Species
His latest work is called Invasive Species, where Dillon took a variety photos of “trees,” which aren’t really trees at all.
“In 1996 a palm tree appeared almost overnight in a suburb of Cape Town. This was supposedly the world’s first ever disguised cell phone tower,” explains Dillion via his website. “Since then these trees have spread across the city, South Africa and the rest of the world. Invasive Species explores the relationship between the environment and the disguised towers of Cape Town and its surrounds.”
