Scaling Perception

from Thinking Through Art Objects · host dml0sc

In this episode, we explore how contemporary artists use scale to challenge perception and evoke powerful responses. From Ron Mueck’s hyper-realistic giants to Mark Wallinger’s life-sized Ecce Homo, we examine how changes in size disrupt our expectations and create psychological impact. Scale is more than measurement—it’s a relationship between viewer and object, inviting us to rethink our connection to the world. Discover how artists use scale to explore themes of vulnerability, consumerism, and the complexities of human experience.
