Answer the following question in 3-4 complete sentences. Describe the example displayed above of a site specific sculpture and the environment it is located in. How would the meaning of this sculpture change if it was removed from its natural environment?

Answer:

The sculpture is made of red leaves arranged in a circle on a shallow pool of water among rocks. It is located in a natural, rocky stream environment, where the water and surrounding stones help shape the artwork. If it were removed from this setting, it would lose its connection to the autumn landscape and the natural movement of water. It might then seem like only a decorative arrangement of leaves instead of a temporary artwork created in harmony with nature.
