Anthony Gormley

This sculpture (Standing Matter XVIII) by Anthony Gormley portrays a human figure, represented by atomic structure. This could be to visualy represent the fact that all things are made up of the same base structures or possibly to represent the differences between different human forms and how different sections of the human structure can be foremed in different sizes.
the minimal use of shape to create the sillhouette of a human really interests me, how a form can portray an idea without being detailed or definitive.
