"Optimum 1"

This piece, titled "Optimum 1", has appeared recently in the window of a flooring company that regularly gives their window over  to various artists for a few months at a time.  The artist Vladimir Radoykov  sees the piece as playing with volume versus surface area relative to the viewer going by on the street. It certainly is striking with all its colours!

Now that would certainly grab the eye as one was walking by! Such a great idea, turning their window space over, I'll bet it pays in spades.

A colourful window like this certainly attracts all the attention of the people in the street! ;-)

This looks like a fun viewing,,,if it looks this cool on blogger...I bet it looks even better in reality!
Have a nice week in Toronto. =)

Clever people at the flooring company. This will make most people stop for a look. Very colorful it is.

Very original! I like the colours too!

I like it because of all the colors but also because it hints at relationships between the objects and the background which is, of course, a secret!

Re your comment on Ocala: I do believe they sell Godiva chocolate. Would that tempt you at all?

I'm with Lowell, I like it because of the colors.

Wow! This installation is outstanding! I am -- as a commenter recently said on my blog -- gobsmacked. (I have been looking for an excuse to say gobsmacked.)

It would certainly catch your eye as you walked along the street, very unusual looking and colourful!

I'm always fond or rainbow colours. They make me feel happy.

I like it very much Pat, it reminds me of something, I just can't think what right away..

Love the colors and shapes. And its wonderful of that flooring company to provide a (literal) window for artists to display their pieces. (I'd buy a floor from them if I were there ;>)!)

It's kind of fun.

What a great idea to encourage local artists, Pat!
