Sculpture Simulation is a 1983 by Paul Brown, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This painting depicts a sculpture in a room with a circular hole in the wall. The sculpture is made up of three connected rings, with the middle ring being the largest. It casts a shadow on the floor. The room is dimly lit, with the only light coming from the circular hole in the wall. The sculpture is the main focus of the painting, and it appears to be made of a smooth, dark material. The painting's use of chiaroscuro creates a sense of depth and volume, drawing the viewer's eye to the sculpture. For more on this technique, look up chiaroscuro.
A digital inkjet print on paper from 1983 by Paul Brown shows a three-dimensional computer simulation of a free-standing sculpture.
