Judges' comments

Pleasing execution with difficult wrapping technique transitions through colors of the tunnel. Does not conform to definition of abstract design.

Judges' comments

Front to back placement of components creates excellent depth in an ingenious interpretation of artwork. The pattern of blue lights affects clear linear rhythm.

Judges' comments

Bold dynamic structure and floral plant material create a rhythmic interpretative design. Scale and color of midollino do not relate to the other bold components.

Judges' comments

Beautifully created container is a stand alone sculpture. Traditional placement and abundance of plant material does not conform to requirements of abstract design.
