Anyone know a Cyclops?


This is some work from artist Jamie Pitarch.

It's quite an interesting visual, I found it very intriguing in the sense that it made me think about clothing and accessories, and how their forms are dictated by our form, seeing this connection visually distorted made it me think about this relationship quite a bit.

If you want to see more you can visit Spencer Brownstone Gallery online.

Pretty bizarre, definately feels like its for the left eye, reminds me of the women of Futurama. But totally agree how things are generally designed around us obviously making sense, then every now and again you are reminded that were not all the same, i always feel sorry for people who have lost limbs and have to pin things up or make amends.

I had actually never thought about this before which is really weird, because it's really obvious....all of our clothes are shaped to follow our body! I feel a bit stupid that I think this is a revelation!

I recently discovered this when one of the arms on my glasses broke! they still work but I struggle to move my head without feeling awkward!

In my opinion, life would be more difficult without ergonomics, unless you are a cyclopse.

As Holly Mee said, it reminded me of Leila from Futurama. She wears a....i was about to say 'pair' of glasses, but i suppose its just a glass, singular. But yea, she wears a 'glass' exactly like this in futurama.

That was the first thing i thought of when i saw this.
