SCOTT ALBRECHT

"The words are taken from the sentiment 'different from you' which I think serves as the foundation to a lot of the fear and bias towards other people. It is a reaction that diminishes people based on their difference, while ignoring their own difference. The pieces show almost identical forms based on the letters 'From You' in an inverted color palette. On the surface it would appear that they are two separate pieces, however the colors pull from the same palette just balanced differently and the structure of the forms are almost identical. In the end, the pieces have more in common than what the surface suggests."
