I never really understand art like this. It's unique, and interesting, and fun to look at, but it's really not that special unless I'm missing something.

It's just random shapes, and a unique set up. Like cutting the apples and fruit in certain ways.

Just seems like a lot of work for something to look at for 3 seconds since there's nothing else to it.

Not all art needs to be a meta-commentary on the duality of man. Sometimes art can just be cool shapes.
