Oculari Perceptoid "Seen Some Things"

Rik Allen’s ‘Oculari Perceptoid "Seen Some Things"’ epitomizes the artist’s innovative techniques and striking compositions. The central body, elongated and oval-shaped, is adorned with multiple protruding, eye-like elements, each meticulously crafted from clear and amber-hued glass, evoking a sense of watchfulness and curiosity. Two additional appendages resembling rocket thrusters emerge from the tapered end near the sleek, steel base, accentuating the piece’s provocative blend of biomorphic and mechanical qualities. This sculpture achieves a balance of complexity and elegance, inviting viewers to ponder the enigmatic story behind its conception and creation.
