THE WORLDS WITHIN By Sylvie Adams Artist Statement "The Worlds Within" refers to the capacity of our brain to create incredibly diverse concepts. It illustrates how the brain can imagine so many different worlds; creating new forms and ideas, often from nothing, and inventing environments, stories and music to inspire humankind. This sculpture also represents the capacity of our brain to make connections, reflect, deduce, think, feel emotions and build meaningful relationships. What we see reflected in the sculpture changes with our point of view. Thus, the sculpture is always changing and evolving, like our thoughts and our brain.
