-The purpose of this piece is to see. The angles aren't the typical angels people are used to but instead are more of something from a creepy movie. They are put together in pieces that look robotic as the wings look more bug like. Overall, the angles look very antique-like. Past the objects, one is also supposed to notice the shadows behind. The way the light hits the objects creates multiple shadows which give a more busy look as of there are more flying angels around.
