Lauren Reimnitz - Simple form, Complex manner (Escher)


This goes along with Andy's post of Escher's use of triangles... In this drawing, Escher uses spheres and a continuous spiral to depict to heads floating in space. The artist could merely have drawn the two people, but instead he divides up their faces and creates a continuous spiral of each of their faces in a loop, while the floating spheres help to add perspective.
