Summary
[edit]DescriptionAmbigram Escher and tessellation background - photomontage with reversible hands.jpg |
English: Ambigram Escher with two reversible hands drawing right side up and upside-down. Ambiguous image based on a symmetry of 180 degrees. Photomontage with an ambigram tessellation showing the name "Escher" in two colors using negative space upside down. M. C. Escher's work features mathematical objects and operations including impossible objects, explorations of infinity, reflection, symmetry, perspective, and tessellations. This composition is a tribute inspired by Drawing Hands, a famous creation by Escher featuring two reversible hands drawing each other (archive).
Français : Ambigramme Escher avec deux mains réversibles qui dessinent à l'endroit et à l'envers. Image réversible basée sur une symétrie par rotation de 180 degrés. Photomontage avec une tessellation (pavage) ambigramme révélant le nom "Escher" en deux couleurs utilisant l'espace négatif à l'envers. Les œuvres de Maurits Cornelis Escher représentent des constructions impossibles, des explorations de l'infini, des pavages et des combinaisons de motifs, qui défient les modes habituels de représentation du spectateur. Cette composition est un hommage inspiré de Drawing hands, une célèbre création d'Escher révélant deux mains se dessinant l'une l'autre (archive). |
