Untitled By Larry Cressman
Jens and I talked about symmetry and asymmetry and tubes and tunnels and things that physicists do. So much of what physicists talk about is scale, a scale that is, in many ways, impossible to comprehend, at both ends of the size spectrum. "You have to look through what? In order to see anything that small."

This piece is constructed of clear tubing, graphite, paper, wire, sticks and ink. It's about seeing objects inside the tubing that represent something in this case the drawings. As physics examines incredible structures and what's inside them is the important event, so this piece is about seeing both the whole and the smallest pieces inside.
