Untitled 2010 by Tuesday Schumaker-Jones, it's an installation piece located in the second floor of the Gloucester building. This is a very confrontational piece and immediately opens discussion among all the viewers. This piece is quite impressive not only for the strong graphic appearance but also because it leaves you questioning whether the moss is growing inside the room and is bursting to the outside or whether the moss has been placed there to create an illusion. Everything seems so real but so fake at the same time.... I cannot stop looking through the glass looking for clues to discover the truth of how this amazing effect has been achieved. This piece has been one of my favourite pieces this year and I think I can dare to call this a piece of art. This work it provokes a reaction on the viewer, it works aesthetically, loads of thought and effort has been put onto this which it makes me admire it even more. I find this piece quite magical and eiry. At some point there were a lot of discussion about the relationship between nature and space which I particularily did not understand very much. We all agreed that we should just admire the piece for what it is, a kind of what you see is what you get and not trying to overdue the analysis which it could risk taking us away from the beauty and simplicity of the work itself.
