Edgie Art On The Edge: A Feast For The Senses!

[MizDemeanor]

Its hard to tell from the photo since I can't zoom it up, but it almost looks like brain coral.

Could not find any info about the artist of this piece...not sure what it is made of

It's funny because it was posted on a social media site this morning and I posted it here. When I went back to that site a couple of hours later, it had been taken down. I wonder why?

Probably Copyright and or Trademark.

I was thinking something similar. It looks like some sort of shell or coral.

Exposed Corridor:

 

 

Eden:

 

 

 

These are two of my favorites. I’m fascinated with the exposed wall, and can’t wait to see it. These green objects in Eden appeared on another thread a few days ago, and I didn’t comment on them at the time. They make me happy, because I can’t help smiling when I see them. They’re very organic looking, resembling long, twisted grasses. I wonder if they’re meant to be artistic trays for potted plants.

I would bet that the wall is much more amazing in person. Being able to see and touch what we usually can't see will be cool.

 

The green Seuss-like items do look like they have holes for plants - I hadn't noticed that before. I think Eden will also look much better in person. I actually am pretty excited to see it. I think I will enjoy being surrounded by the plants, gorgeous views and whimsical art and furniture.

 

It's funny, but I was thinking today about how I have never been excited to sail a ship because of the art onboard. It has always been a pleasant addition to my cruise experience in the past, but not a main attraction like it is for me on this ship.

Haha it’s great that you mentioned Seuss! I thought of Whoville (as I have with a few other pieces on board) but didn’t think anyone else saw it😁  I love the variety and quality of the art on all the Celebrity ships I’ve sailed (S-class & M-class) so I expected to be wowed by Edge class also. I do especially love the organic elements  in the art pieces and the design of the public spaces on Edge.

Here's the one outside Tuscan by Apollo Rey

Acupuncture gone wrong ...... The drilled holes into the nice sculpture, esp the eyes,  are  disturbing.

 

Not all of the art to be featured on board thrills me but may appeal to others. Wonder who is curating it all...

 

I  can just pass it by.,....and focus on the items that make artistic  sense to me,,,

The title of this piece should be “Major Migraine”!

The artist's name is Hedi  Xandt. Apollo Rey is a series of sculptures by the artist involving heads that are “pierced”. She's a German born Norwegian artist.

The principles of true art is not to portray, but to evoke. Jerzy Kosinski

[hcat]

..this evokes a feeling that the artist may be living in great pain....nothing   good about a stick in the eye...we won't let it detract from a nice dinner in Tuscan  or BLU with wierd tall carvings..

 

There is definitely lots of beautiful and happy art on EDEN ...

Never enough Mr Edge - a gorgeous beast (? made from wood):

Re posting these from the Blocks thread...with other source

They were described as murals in EDEN...

[vtcruising]

I think those murals are on one of the two outside decks of Eden. Amazing!  Here is a video.

Here are some other works of art onboard:

 

Cartier panther - another animal onboard.

 

 

Love this one!

 

 

I'll need to meet this one in person before passing judgment.

 

 

The Forest in browns:

This 3X20 ft wall art looks interesting. I haven't figured out where it is yet.

Maybe he's the guardian of the hidden T-Pool in the Spa...
