Figure Descending a Staircase - 4' wide x 6' high, black & white.

A LIFETILES work by Rufus Butler Seder.
For pieces such as this one, Rufus developed an 8" square, three-pound, lens-ribbed glass tile, which he calls a LIFETILE. By combining many LIFETILES, he found that he was able to create large-scale "Movies for the Wall": optical wall pieces that appear to come to life, move and change when the observer walks by.
"In my work I try to capture a motion that defines the subject to the observer. I want you to feel the weightless thrill of a dancer's leap or the elastic coil and spring of a running cat. When I succeed, I feel as though I've created a little bit of life itself." - Rufus Butler Seder
