Non-Sign II is an installation piece by artists collective Lead Pencil Studio. The piece is constructed from small steel beams which work like 3-dimensional lines to create density and transparency. The installation is meant to imitate the shape and size of a billboard, but instead of advertising something, and distracting you from the landscape, the negative space of the billboard works to frame the landscape and redirect our focus back onto nature.
The group has done similar installations with the same process of using steel beams, and also done other takes on billboards. Most of their pieces are large scale installations which focus on redirecting our attention and encouraging a feeling of awe.
