the phenomenology of painting (Albers machine) explores the relationship of abstract painting to spatial illusion. Throughout the last 100 years there has been much discussion of the nature of painting, and the relative value of acknowledging the flatness of the picture plane vs. explicitly creating the illusion of depth. This piece both pokes fun at and investigates these stances by creating the illusion of depth in three wall-mounted objects that very closely resemble Joseph Albers paintings from the series Homage to the Square.
