There are also three works by Kicca Igaly at Brooklyn is Watching this week, all placed by nessuno Myoo. But they are much more divergent in style and content than nessuno’s works, so I’m not going to review them as a group; right now I’m looking at Cobweb. (Note: the pink pony on top of the right pillar was placed by Ichibot Nishi and is not part of the work.)
I see Cobweb as a statement about the turning of fate. Here, instead of an insect being caught in the web, a human form is caught in a giant cobweb, while a giant spider approaches. The web is suspended between two marble pillars, which in turn rest on a red base (possibly stone). The human figure is curled up in a fetal position and has its eyes covered, suggesting an attempt to deny its fate rather than face it.
Visually, this is a mixed bag. The human figure and the spider are well-crafted and evocative. The pillars are roughly made, perhaps an esthetic choice. The weakest link is the cobweb, which is a simple low-resolution flat image rather than being made of prims; its lack of detail seems out of place.
