The Cubed Sphere

Artist Statement:

This artwork is a 3D sculpture and models of the first trimester of pregnancy. Using the popular video game Minecraft I have built this sculpture. The imagery on the outside of the sphere, including: The Rehumanize Logo, a Preborn Child, images that represent Science and how it points to God and my faith in God. And finally a quote by J.R.R Tolkien. If this sculpture was to scale it would be over 11,2013 feet tall.

Inside of the sphere I have 15 models of the preborn child during the First Trimester of pregnancy. Follow the DNA stairs and find each model. 

Last year artists had a theme of interactive art pieces. With this piece I wanted to create something big and beautiful that anyone could access and view first hand. Anyone with the Java edition of Minecraft can access this map and explore the artwork for themselves.
