Liverpool Tate

I recently visited the Liverpool Tate gallery with college. several particular pieces caught me eye, one of theses, was : three balls total equilibrium tank ( 2 dr j silver series, nba tip off) by Jeff Koony. this was a solid glass tank, with 3 basketballs inside, all different distances from each other. the reason this piece caught my eye was because of the way it captured movement and speed, also the way it reflects in the insides of the tank, because of the solid glass.

another piece of artwork which i found very interesting, was an exhibit which consisted of a room, which some old wooden furniture in the middle, with candles on it. and a large fire fighting hose pipe on the wall, however the hose pipe had a hand coming out of the end. after sitting for a long while and watching the hand, it became apparent that this was a human hand. at first i found this quite disguising, and this is the first piece of art which has had an impact on me
