My Own Optical Illusion | Summer Learning Journey | Week 1 Activity 7

 L.I to use inspiration from other optical illusion's to create your own.  

In this DLO, I have used inspiration from different optical illusion portraits, to create my own. As you have seen in my previous blog post I made, I had re-created a famous illusion by M.C Escher, in this activity we were asked to create our very own illusion. I have made a continuous dimond, that seems to never end. This took a very long proccess since it took a lot of copy and pasting. In the process of making this, My eyes started to see different things and I became to get more dizzer. What this optical illusion reminds me of is a portal to an outer space world. Here are the results.

 L.I To use our creativity to create and design our own optical.

In this DLO I have re-created a optical illusion. this illusion is a Paradox Illusion, which means a illusion that is impossible to solve. As you can see here this cube is hard to figure out which side it is facing. This illusion was created by M.C Escher. M.C Escher is a dutch graphic artist who is mostly well known for his impossible construction, infinity explorations, design, and tessellations. In one of the potraits that he had made it showed how this illusion was made below. In the potrait, it showed a young boy sitting on a bench playing with this object. Below this DLO, a video of me explaing the types of illusions, and more about M.C Escher is their as another part of completing the step it up challenge.

Comment down below what is your favourite type of illusion!

 L.I to create a more detailed Kowhaiwhai pattern. 

                                    

Storyline: This Kowhaiwhai pattern is about Rangi & Papa, before they were seperated. I hae used Blue to represent Papa(Sky) and Green to represent Rangi(Nautre). I also used two koru's to with different colors to represent the children they had. 

In this DLO above, I have used my creativity to create a more detailed kowhaiwhai pattern. A kowhaiwhai pattern is a monograph that expresses a story using maori art. Just as the last task, we needed to create a kowhaiwhai pattern; but in this activity, we were able to use different lines and make it more detailed. This activty also concluded us to create a storyline as any other kowhawhai pattern.

In my kowhawhai pattern I hade used two main colors which were the main key of understanding my story. With my kowhaiwhai pattern I created a heart, to create the love of Rangi & Papa

 I really enjoyed this activity because of how we used our creativity, and how I needed to research more into different moari myths to get my storyline. 

Leave your thoughts below on what you think about my pattern.
