Aesthetic "Beauty"


Aesthetic "Beauty": conceived to stimulate a sense of beauty in the viewer. 





Juliana Santacruz Herrera is the artist behind this artwork. She used a procedure called yarnbombing. Herrera uses for form of crouching yarn and puts it into cracks in the street. She adds beauty to the break down of the streets in Paris, and unlikely canvas for an artist to work with. I feel that she is using color to portray a positive with a negative (the negative being the crack in the road). She is making it so when you look down and see a fault in society such as an unfixed pothole, she wants you to view it as a colorful fix.
