- SPEAKER:
- Melissa Manfull
Examine composition and perspective in works from the Renaissance to the modern era, and explore how artists create the illusion of space in their work with artist Melissa Manfull. Consider how space is reinterpreted to create dramatic narratives and moody environments and discover how the viewer’s proximity to an artwork changes their perception of space within a piece.
Discover how to create mood or narrative when all representational images have been removed. Learn composition techniques from artworks from the 20th century and create abstract interpretations of the originals.
