Who remembers the Rubik’s Cube sensation back in the 80s?  I can distinctly remember spending hours twisting and turning, trying to line up all those little colored squares!  I always thought the more random arrangement of colors much more interesting than the neatly lined up hues.  These sculptures by London artist Sophie Smallhorn how much more interesting things can be when we allow for a bit of disarray.

 

A life where all is neat and orderly, all black and white, in which we can easily answer any question with this is wrong and this is right is one hardly worth talking about, is it?  It is in the missing pieces, in the gaps between where we may not find answers, but will likely find understanding.
