Peter Vial: Peekaboo

Some perspectives have to be taken with humor! At least that's how Peter Vial did it. His contribution to "Perspective matters" is sure to make you smile.

This artwork is part of our campaign "Perspective matters". With start'19 in mind, we asked artists what they saw in the apostrophe from our event logo – or if it even is an apostrophe in their eyes. The responses to this call for entries revealed a multitude of perspectives that we want to share with our readers. More information about the campaign can be found HERE.

Peter’s sculpture is not a work for eternity! His cheeky interpretation of the apostrophe shows a perspective full of humour and joy. But at the same time, everything has to end somehow. Peekaboo shows the circle of life, embracing all its facets – and reminding us not to take it too seriously. What do you see?

Are you inspired by this perspective? Don’t hesitate to show your own, then! To get you started we have prepared a craft template – download it HERE. As part of our campaign, we want to encourage everyone to look at their own perspective and maybe re-think it. While making such a small sculpture, you have the best opportunity to turn both things around: the paper sculpture and your own perspective ... we're curious to see what comes out of it! Show us your results with the hashtag #checkyourperspective
