Yours do, his don't. Yours are impossible, his are possible.

My interpretation works, yours apparently doesn't.

If you look at blueprints, you don't interpret the



as a quarter-cylinder.

Ah, well. We seem to be repeating ourselves.

Your doorway is a standard symbol and universally understood. Obviously we'll never agree on this. I believe the divergent point was, "insert sculpture here".

Did you also think the "viewer" was a hovering, disembodied, yellow disc, or did you understand the implied "insert human being here"?

Dual shadows

There was a (New?) Mexican ?artist? who carved some sculptures (10?) 70 years ago? in 1970-ies?

Anyway, those are now collector's items and best displayed in the corner with two lights, so that it casts different shadows on 2 surfaces.
The one I saw (TV, xx yrs ago, 3 min clip) was eagle with raised wings/elk with big horns.

Flint's third picture reminded me strongly of that, and nobody mentioned those carvings...

I (we) (you) (them?) am very confused (un-enlightened) (unsure?) (not clear) as to where you were going with your post.

BTW, welcome to the cellar!

This series is another excellent example of perspective-specific images.
