Adventures in Perception

Synopsis

The work of Ducth graphic artist Maurits Escher is a play of perspectives and illusions of forms and spaces in which he draws the impossible. Boundaries expand to infinity, and floors becomes ceilings and vice versa. He repeats forms in an ever-changing perspective and creates a circle of metamorphosis.
