Marsyas - Anish kapoor


A non-generalized sculptor who does not create sculptures to sell or attract a potential consumer but rather awaits a viewer to feel odd by the presence of this mammoth structure ,its size, its awkwardness.
‘You may love it, you may hate it, but you surely cannot ignore it! ’
This is how he wants to be talked about!
He personifies the structure as Marsyas made of stripes of PVC like layers of skin on a man. His sensitivity towards materials is really appreciable, since its key for a sculptor to admire the look and feel of the medium they would use to translate their ideas.
