TEXTURE Texture refers to surface quality – a sense of touch. a perception of smooth or rough, flat or bumpy, fine or coarse. Sometimes, you cannot touch the art piece but the memory can give you sensation of touch. e.g. smooth translucence of marble, the rough grain of wood, the polish bronze Prayer Mat, Mona Hatoum, 1995
TEXTURE Beads, feathers, bone & velvet give different tactile sensations. That’s why the artist put the photocopy of her hand on the right. It represent the touch of the artwork. Betye Saar. The time inbetween. 1974
TEXTURE 2 categories of artistic texture: Tactile & Visual Tactile texture: you can actually feel it. Just like architecture and sculpture In painting, artist uses a thick pigment call Impasto to create an uneven, rough, 3D paint surface Van Gogh drew lots of short brushstrokes by using thick undiluted paint The form is very obvious. The background space is sky and cypress tress but he used abstract pattern to represent them. Do you still remember the form & space from the last class?
VISUAL TEXTURE Visual texture refers tothe illusion of the surface’s texture. It is what tactile texture looks like (on a 2D surface). Ex: textures yousee in a photograph arevisual textures.
Visual TEXTURE • At first, the photographer wants you to see the red things. • Then, he wants you to pay attention on the rest of details • e.g. Stone, Shingle & wood • The texture of architecture.
Visual TEXTURE • Screen print – flat and smooth. Not thick paint. • Lines make you feel rough. Visual texture
Combination of Tactile and visual TEXTURE • Use contrast of color value (dark & light) • You look closely at museum. Then, you can find that some are tactile texture and some are visual texture. • Materials include cans, bottles and paint. • The tactile and visual texture give surprising result. It creates an unified composition. Combine sculpture (3D) and painting(2D)
SPACE 3-D Space: Sculpture, Architecture, Installation Art e.g. architecture: space among buildings. Our movement within those space. Just like a bird. Fly among buildings. • What about Drawings (2D)? How to represent space? • To convert a feeling of space. We must translate them from our 3D experience to a 2D plane. • In other words, how to render 3D world on a flat paper. Which one is more spacious?
SPACE How to create space illusion? Overlap and diminishing size The far object, smaller. The near object, bigger.
SPACE In these 2 pictures, What’s in common?
SPACE • They both have center lines to draw attention • Then, people use this center line as standard and compare the surroundings. • e.g. people would compare the plaza behind. Smaller (far) • Create space between plaza & street lamp • Very convincing illusion Ex. Hint: You can use large leaves and smaller leaves. Overlap and resize them to form space.
SPACE & DEPTH • Method of Perspective Drawing • From a single, fixed vantage point ---> to create illusion of space and depth • Foreshortening
