Composition


Composition is an important aspect in a picture, it is important to consider how the viewer interprets an image and in what way it affects the viewer.
Different compositions in an image can convey different meanings, and may communicate to the viewer in a very interesting way to include the viewer somehow.


Here is a picture very similar to “The folded chess set” by Sandro Del-Prete in 1975:

It shows a kind of illusion that may make the viewer confused in knowing from what perspective to look at the picture, as the picture has been manipulated to make dimensions different almost like lying to the viewer.

That’s the whole point of composition: Creating a 3D effect into a 2D shape effect.

Pablo Picasso quotes “Art is a lie that tells you the truth” This can be done through manipulating images and making different compositions.

For my logo I wont be creating any adverse effects or manipulate the composition of my logo as I want it to be as clear as possible for people to see and have it as less confusing as possible and try my best to show it as I want it to look more or a graphic image than an illusion.
