M.C Esher Assignment


M.C Escher Assignment Description

       This week in the 8th Grade Media Arts Class, we were asked to try to imitate a drawing,"Relativity", by M.C Escher, an artist specializing in tessellations. When I first glanced at the picture, I was unsure if any of us would be even able to come close to such an amazing drawing. What's so extraordinary about this piece is that all of those different perspectives and dimensions make you want to inspect every single detail, in order to be able to capture the drawing.
        My kerpoof picture diplays 3 different perspectives. Each staircase has someone walking up or down from what would be his/her point of view. All of those perspectives are trying to connect with each other, in order to piece together a unique image. Creating this picture turned out to be just as difficult as I expected! It's not easy trying to imagine something from a different perspective you aren't really used to. Which is why I've come to admire M.C Escher's Work. However, it was a fun and interesting experience to work on an assignment that takes you out of the ordinary!

  1. I think you mean to say that he "specializes in tessellations" and that you want to "be able to capture the drawing". Please make those changes.
