| The
Art of M.C. Escher - Encounter |
|
|
|
The
question
is to
what extent
are we
aware
of space
and the
miracle
of what
we call
'reality.'
Our whole
existence
is so
closely
tied up
with the
concept
of three-dimensionality
that we
can no
more truly
imagine
two dimensions
as four.
The flat
shape
irritates
me --
I feel
like telling
my objects,
you are
too fictitious,
lying
there
next to
each other
static
and frozen:
do something,
come off
the paper
and show
me what
you are
capable
of! So
I make
them come
out of
the plane.
If the
plane-filling
design
that served
as a starting
point
consists
of the
repetition
of two
motifs
differing
in form
and character,
these
can express
any opposite
quality
by consuming
each other,
or if
a more
peaceful
solution
is preferred,
by reconciliation
in an
embrace.
