and everyone mistook it for art



quote:

Several visitors to the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art this week were fooled into thinking a pair of glasses set on the floor by a 17-year-old prankster was a postmodern masterpiece.


quote:

To test out the theory that people will stare at, and try and artistically interpret, anything if it’s in a gallery setting, Khayatan set a pair of glasses down and walked away.

ironically the trolling of the patrons is, in itself, a beautiful artistic move

Meanwhile, Scott Van Pelt is still walking around totally blind in a wing of the museum long-since abandoned; never to be seen again.

you see this piece is a statement on humanity's over-reliance on technology and the perversion of our true selves

have we forgotten what it is truly like to be human? what are we when the lights go out?
