Stack by Tony Cragg.
I chose this work by Tony Cragg because it differes from his previous organic sculptures like 'Bent of Mind' and 'I'm Alive'. Stack is a cube consistant of multiple found objects and materials tightly stacked together to create this geometrical shape. Where as Cragg's previous work was more conceptually based on the biological relationships. This work differs in being more geologycal and archeological. The way that Cragg stacked wood in mostly horizantal lines combined with other metal and concrete like objects creates an imigery of Earth's geological layers. I really liked the idea of relationships in terms of human impact on our natural world. Is Cragg trying to say that we are polluting the world ? Or is he trying to say that natural world is becoming more and more man made?
