Sculptures reports that projected incredible shadows
Really impressive these sculptures that I discovered via Pixel and Dixel. The artist is called Shigeo Fukuda and is a specialist in optical illusions. With an exceptional patience and ingenuity, put hundreds of small objects in an apparent disorder, but only apparent because it is illuminated when the "sculpture" from a certain angle, on projects takes the form of some extraordinarily real object or scene.
Amazing what can be achieved with a pile of garbage
Figure human achieved only with cooking utensils

Fantastic… it reminds me that the Mayans made hundreds of years have also embraced the shadows… the pyramid of Chichen Itza projected the shadow of a snake alone in the Spring and Autumn equinox… snake Kukulcan engullendo the sun and giving way to a … new period we are talking about the year 600 AD when Europe was still thought that the earth was flat, and the Mayans already dominated mathematics and astronomy…
Sensational
In my study tour went to the Rib Maya, and I visited Chichen Itza I explained what the serpent that forms the equinoxes and left me impressed.
I know that during the Spanish conquest many scrolls that were burned surely contain scientific knowledge that Europe took centuries to acquire, if they already have been discovered all.
A real shame. Learn not to repeat the mistakes of history.

I think the shadows are a reflection of what desolate objects that are manipulated by man artist……. "understood as a work"… ..
