Alberto Giacometti, Man-Pointing, 1947 Medium: Bronze This Sculpture is of a man's gesture with his left arm and pointing with his right. Standing alone he looks like a skeleton. Although there is no exact thing he's pointing at, the meaning behind it is deeper than most people assume. This piece I've designed is to exemplify a change we need to see in the world. The man is holding up his left arm as if he is holding a mirror looking at himself and the other hand is pointing. The right hand is pointing to whomever is admiring the piece to illustrate that the change people wants to see in the world, starts with "you". I've picked to design the man with no special features and no special colors because it doesn't take anything special to make a change in the world.
