Japanese artist Yuki Matsueda reinvigorates mundane, everyday objects in his clever 3D art installment entitled Escape. “No Smoking” signs, playing cards, alarm clocks, and eye-chart recreations explode out of the constricting frames where they’ve been placed and into mid-air, where they remain frozen in flight. Matsueda’s collection also signifies that the pieces aren’t just one-dimensional, both visually and conceptually, through personifying the objects and representing their need to break free from designated structures. Check out the Escape series after the jump.
