Denial of Perspective
http://www.gravestmor.com/wp/archives/2006/01/10/notes-on-the-denial-of-perspective-02-felice-varini/ Felice Varini paints (lines, concentric circles, triangles) on things (tunnels, castles, groovy interiors). A seemingly random smattering of elements that, viewed from a specific point in space, coalesce into a tangible planar element. Similar to the street chalk drawings posted a while back. Basically paintings that when viewed from a certain angle and position, make a lot more sense than from anywhere else. Interesting stuff =) |

Re: Denial of Perspective
Wow that would mess with my head if I chose to decorate my hallway like that. It's amazing what you can do with trick perspective, however what I wonder is how they work out the maths of it all so that they know just how to paint each wall, frame, door etc. _________________ mad as a badger and twice as furry |

Talking of perspective - have you seen these freaky lorry covers? I bet they cause some accidents! Larger images at http://homepages.enterprise.net/tedeggs/fc/ then the images are 001 - 007 Enjoy. Ted

Re: Denial of Perspective
Fantastic! Particularly lke the upside down Pepsi one. But they do, of course, have to be viewed from exactly the right angle. |

I have a feeling they're fakes. Look at the background. Everything is in exactly the same position; clouds,etc. _________________ It must be Thursday, I never could get the hang of Thursdays |

Er.. thanks Lexus but they're not mine. I'm passing on what I received but sticking them on my site of ease of viewing. Ted |
