I was absolutely mesmerized with Tom Wesselmann’s beautiful work, showing small intimate objects on a large scale. Each large-scale work is made up of multiple canvases, both hanging and standing, shaped according to the outline of the commonplace objects that they depict. Standing next to these canvases made me feel like I was in a scene of “Honey I Shrunk the Kids” or “Alice in Wonderland”. This is the first time that the complete series will be shown together.
