More/less

More/less

More/less is the name of a sculpture presented in the 2006 Sculpture by the Sea exhibition by young Australian artists Ellie Nuss and James McDermid. It is constructed from wood and consists of four "Escheresque" objects, each constituting letters for the two words MORE and LESS. When viewed from the appropriate angle one of the two words is visible.
The sculpture was awarded the Damon Courtenay Memorial Young Sculptor Prize.
