The first placement (Three-Port) are to close together. I didn't chose it since it had to much negative space contained behind the swords hilts and reason is it feels like its missing something. If I casted something different to fit behind (the blades) it it may improve it. This would have been greater in an contained large tank filled with water.
However the second arrangement (compensating for something) isn't my favorite and not having the other straight swords is quite... naughty. This would have worked better with an few plaster casts contained or white concrete casts perhaps. My problem is the dull background. As the formation is blending with the grey floor. This would work better on a red background , this would change the objects context from literal to an metaphor for bickering and back stabbing.
Overall these two need further development and more thoughts about context and further placements set in clown world. The perfect arrangement for depicting the world is a fragmented sword, guns held at your mouth, ships deceived for taxis and tainted culture (the lightsaber). Reason for the last one is the strong fisted use of propaganda in entertainment.
