Art en Route: "Optical Illusion"

Cor-Ten steel, painted, 1984
Artist: Jean-Claude Rigaud

Haitian-born Rigaud created this undulating, spiraling sculpture to be viewed and appreciated from many different perspectives. Using a red spiral and three white circular forms, the artist produced an optical and spatial illusion that evolves with the viewer’s changing perspective. While Optical Illusion appears to be a simple red spiral with three white forms when seen from either side, the three white circular forms create a target-like illusion of one large disc within a red ring when viewed from either end.
