Of the three artist profiles our class was shown I found the work of Maya Li the most compelling. It was her work that while aesthetically pleasing seemed to be the most functional. The pieces by Richard Serra appeared to exist for their own sake. James Turrell's church was nice, but overall his work also felt somewhat indulgent.
I liked how Lin's ice skating rink is both usable yet simultaneously just nice to look at. I found it interesting that she differentiated between what she considered to be two trades: one being an artist, the other architect.
