Will Ryman lives and works in New York City. Ryman's recent work challenges the viewer to alter his perspective through distortions of scale, compelling empathy and also pointing to the hazards of humanity, as the natural world succumbs to our ever larger foot print. 
Ryman created over one hundred massive roses for a gallery show in New York called
A New Beginning. The six foot flower sculptures are littered with detritus like cigarettes and empty chip bags. Occasionally, an equally large lady-bug or aphid joins the clump. Ryman described the work as a NYC garden from the point of view of a rat.
The image above is of Ryman setting up his piece "The Bed" at a gallery in London.
"The Bed" is a 26 foot-long papier mâché sculpture of a chap that looks uncannily like
the BFG. In his artist’s statement, Ryman said that ‘The Bed’ originated with his childhood impression of his parents’ bed being much bigger than it actually was, and is an exploration of one’s distorted perspective of one’s place in the world and relationship to surroundings.
