Description
Robert Lazzarini composed a sculptural installation of four skulls hung about eye-level and protruding about a foot from the walls of a small, well-lit, clean and bright room. To create this deceptively low-tech installation, Lazzarini laser-scanned an actual human skull to create a three-dimensional CAD (computer-aided design) file, which, he then subjected to various distortions. The resulting distorted files became the models for four sculptures cast in solid bone. As experience testifies, Lazzarini’s work functions by catalyzing a perspectival crisis, confronting the people as it does with what would seem to be indices from a world wholly alien to our habitual perceptual expectations and capacities.
