This piece has untitle, but it is known as The Hotel Eden, It is of the year 1945 and its dimensions are 15 1/8 x 15 ¾ x 4 ¾, the author of this work is Joseph Cornell American sculptor, this work is part of the surrealist art movement. This piece has the technique of the assemblage consisting of the juxtaposition irrational of objects that are discarded by other people. Cornell was a pioneer and a celebrated exponents of this technique.
This piece of art is my favorite because makes me feel like nothing is really discarded, everything can be used to make other thing, even the things that we think are rubbish if viewed from another perspective can become a piece of art.
Besides the fact that they are three dimensional pieces make it seem as if the objects come to life, as if the bird we see in the box really was a bird and not one paper. The scene that opens in front of my eyes is a parrot that communicates through the rope that is at its peak and sending messages from their room to the whole galaxy, because the yellow ball above is an orb of our solar system that connects the parrot to the entire universe without having to leave their box.
