A blog that aims to spark thoughts and inspire by seeking out and sharing works of art
Historically, artists have always worked big, and nowadays those boundaries are being pushed to the limits.
Large-scale art, whether in the form of photos from the Hubble space telescope, sharks floating in tanks of formaldehyde, rooms full of dots, concrete sculptures cast from Victorian buildings or hand knitted blankets wrapped around trees, large-scale art is all around us. Join the Big Picture aims to spark thoughts and inspire by seeking out and sharing these works.
