The artwork, titled “See by Looking/Hear by Listening,” was created by artist Richard Artschwager in 1992. This piece belongs to the Conceptual Art movement and is categorized as an installation.
The artwork consists of a wooden box with an open lid, revealing a luxurious dark blue velvet lining inside. The box is divided into three compartments. The left compartment houses a circular, frosted glass object, while the right compartment holds three shiny, metallic, irregularly shaped objects. The velvet adds an air of mystery and sophistication to the presentation, emphasizing the concept of perception through the senses of sight and hearing.
