Sorry if this makes me sound like uncultured swine, but is this piece a reference to anything? Like did this artist want to do an homage to something else? Or is it just a bunch of random bullshit of varying shades of white placed into a concise pattern?

I'm getting the sense that the artist took a photo or scene and tried to recreate the shapes with random white items they found. If you squint, you can just almost pretend it's a building on the left hand side with the sky on the right, not sure about the wii controller.

I'm 98% sure it's just white-colored things he had laying around. No deeper meaning.
