How Many Vases Do You See?

count them,


1,2,3,4,5,6,7, yes 7 vases, but how many ladies in the picture did you count? I made it 6, the vases are the work of Greg Payce in 2008, the Canadian ceramicist created an alluring sculptural arrangement called Alumina, in which seven ornate vases stand in a line on a concrete platform, the magic of Alumina comes from the optical illusion that it produces, Payce has created a three-dimensional representation of Rubin’s vase, in which a figure (often a face) is revealed through the edges of two forms, and in case you have not seen them yet the ladies appear in between the vases, neat.
