“Irreversible Change/Selective Memory" by Terry Hayes

This picture looks like there's trees, with rain coming down. The background seems like a coral reef, in the middle ground there's two trees that pop right in the center, with different patterns sticking up in the foreground. Elements of design include curved, organic, and geometric lines and shapes. This piece creates movement especially looking at this in person when you can walk from side to side. There's actual and synthetic texture on all dimensions. His work also has different patterns that repeat, with a wide variety of them in the trees mostly.
I believe the reason for this is that the art meets the needs of the artist. Aesthetic philosophy for this piece would be Aristotle because it's the imitation of nature and Terry Hayes uses a form of nature for his work. I think this is an abstract piece because the artist presents an idea with all his pieces seen in the gallery. The different colors, forms, and shapes he uses creates more of an abstract figure throughout.
