I think this would fall under "Paradox Illusion" rather than "perspective."

People's terrible attempt to "interpret" art like this makes me hate talking to people about art.

How do you even begin to create something like this? Let alone more than one

Perspective on life. An interesting way to view the relationships of things around you. I was not describing it in a technical way

10 years ago | Likes 26 Dislikes 19

Shut the hell up. It's just cool paintings with 2 ways to look at them , stop making things uncool

6 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

I see what you're saying OP

10 years ago | Likes 3 Dislikes 0

I don't think the paintings are as deep as you're interpreting it. I think it's just showing creative illusions in beautiful ways.

10 years ago | Likes 23 Dislikes 3

I think he has a point though. I'm sure the painters didn't just merely intend them to be illusions, but also visual allegories as well.

10 years ago | Likes 10 Dislikes 1

To call them "perspective on life." Allegory is a much better word for it. 2/2

10 years ago | Likes 5 Dislikes 0

A couple of them are clearly allegories. The first...ships building bridges, the kids building from blocks to cities. But it's a stretch 1/2
