== Art == Several of [[Mark Renn]]'s sculptural works play with parallax, appearing abstract until viewed from a specific angle. One such sculpture is ''The Darwin Gate'' (pictured) in [[Shrewsbury]], England, which from a certain angle appears to form a dome, according to [[Historic England]], in "the form of a Saxon helmet with a Norman window... inspired by features of St Mary's Church which was attended by Charles Darwin as a boy".<ref name="EH-DG">{{PastScape |mname= Darwin Gate |mnumber=1490992 |access-date=4 January 2020}}</ref> {{multiple images | align = center | width = 150 | image1 = Sculpture in Shrewsbury (7156) (cropped).jpg | alt1 = their separate columns, each arched at the top | image2 = Darwin memorial in Shrewsbury (cropped).jpg | alt2 = an apparent dome | footer = Viewed from a certain angle the curves of the three separate columns of ''The Darwin Gate'' appear to form a dome }}
