For centuries the human body has been a focal subject in art. It has been used for religious connotation, for evoking emotion, and for defining its sensual purpose. But has it ever been used to represent the space in which it exists in?
Brian Biedul, a Colorado born artist, does exactly this: using the human body to represent the architectural element of space. In his Spaces collection he includes a three part series of rectangles, squares, and cubes, using the human body to define each.
