Below are photographs of a stunning work of art which is actually a tribute to Nelson Mandela!
The seemingly abstract modern-looking art work is composed of 50 rods of steel, which symbolize/depict prison bars, as a reminder of the years Mandela was imprisoned.
However, the most remarkable thing about this piece of work is that it is only when one stands at a certain specified distance from the art work that Mandela's profile becomes clearly and completely visible. In order to achieve that specific "special effect", each steel rod and the spot [where a person viewing the work should stand is clearly marked on the ground] had been precisely positioned.
