For me the wrong would occur if I were to build another suspension bridge, or Kort to make another sculpture the same as the original.
I cannot believe a 2D photograph can be a copying of someones 3 dimensional solid oblect. The sculpture is a sculpture first and foremost, before it is anything else. A vision in 2D is a vision of that, not the same as the original.
And every one said, 'If we only live,
We too will go to sea in a Sieve,---
To the hills of the Chankly Bore!'
Far and few, far and few, Are the lands where the Jumblies
live;
Their heads are green, and their hands are blue, And they went to
sea in a Sieve.
