I constructed this piece to point out Ernest Trova's Profile Canto series on campus. They are unusual, abstract, larger than life shapes that resemble a human or humans only from a certain angle. In this case, the viewer could only see the human face if they were standing over it- something hard to do since the sculpture was standing in an elevated garden bed.
We were only allowed to use numbers or symbols to get our point across. The OIC is a shortened way of saying "Oh, I See!" with an arrow on the bottom half of the I, pointing towards the place the viewer would need to stand in order to see the human face.
