(12/28/10) Confuse and confound your brain Everyone's played with that other cube toy, and there are so many YouTube videos and other sites explaining how to solve them, it's gotten to be a little boring and passé. This cube toy ramps up the difficulty to INSANE. No more straight vertical and horizontal cuts in the cube shape - oh no! There are now two new vertical slices, creating new planes for rotation, designed to totally bork up your spatial relations. Each turn brings you further away from sanity. It's madness, I tell you!

The sculpture plays on the contrast between the solid and geometric elements of the Rubiks cube and the liquid and changing element suggested by the pictures. It evokes discretely the ecological catastrophe and the difficulty in finding a solution that could put everything back into its place.See less
