Vortex

I decided to begin exploring the idea of a vortex. I started researching different artists who have used the theme of vortex within their work. One artist who I found very interesting was Do Ho Suh. Suh created a very interesting and precise spiral in varying shades of orange and red which gives the illusion of a fiery looking vortex. When examined closely you will see that it is actually made up of thousands of tiny men. Suh says "The work is an attempt to decipher the boundaries between a single identity and a larger group, and how the two conditions coexist"
