Figure/Ground- Solange



Using a combination of black and white shapes the image ransfers from a city scape to paper people. The rhythm is distinct in the repition of shapes that changes every so slightly over time to move from image to image, overall reminding me of a puzzle. The slight transitions, as well as the choice of using just black and white unifies the piece while variety of of shapes and the how Escher manages to change realistic images to basic shapes and back keeps me intereted and looking. It makes for a fascinating piece.
