Anna Higgie - This piece is deconstructed figuratively. While there is still a representational element in the face the form of the head almost explodes into a geometric form.
I think the artist is referencing thought and perception with this image. The converging lines that enter the eye are duplicated throughout the geometric forms, and the abstraction of shapes reminds me of mathematics and inorganic thought.
I think this piece stands on it's own. While a title might give more context and direction to the meaning of the image, it is not difficult to read and develop a narrative without any direction.

Lorna Barnshaw - This piece is deconstructed mostly in frame. There is some deconstruction of figure in the form of the frame, but chiefly in frame.
This piece seems to convey a lot of sadness, which is developed in the eyes, but which is accentuated in the placement and deconstruction of the frame.
I think that this piece reads very well on it's own. It is a beautiful deconstruction of frame that really conveys the idea of figure in both shape and rendering.

Regardt van der Meulen - This piece is a deconstruction of both figure and frame. It is very close to the line of being unrecognizable as a figure. The construction of this sculpture creates a lovely tension of what exists and what the eye implies. The darkness of the metal as well as the dripping nature give a gloomy dark sense that is mysterious and intriguing which makes it beautiful. While some context (a key) would be helpful, this artpiece is readable in many ways on it's own.
