"Art is the imposing of a pattern on experience, and our aesthetic enjoyment is recognition of the pattern"
~ Alfred North Whitehead
Hawaii has hundreds of hotels/resorts catering to thousands of visitors/tourists at the same time. These hotels need to satisfy those customers looking for great locations for cheaper prices. Such places provide instant gratification for millions of people who now have a chance to enjoy various destinations (for example Hawaii in this case) without making a hole in their pockets.
The desire to cater to thousands of tourists at the same time gives rise to the need for such mega structures where repetition is a way of providing answers to that desire. It may look too urban or ugly to some folks who can burn the buck, but this is art too in a different sense.
This is a different hotel with a different kind of pattern. Do you see this as urban art or urban decay? What do you think?
December 31 2009, Waikiki Beach, Oahu, Hawaii. This art/urban decay from here.
