Space:

The space around the object and the space within an object.

Architects:

• Architects can be reasonably but not entirely sure that their work will remain ‘in situ’

• Sites can change around buildings overtime.

Kuma: - V&A Dundee

• Wants to make it welcoming - serving the community

• Unite the earth and water

• Reconnect the city to the waterfront and maritime - connect to the past

• Facade

• In situ

Artists:

• Artists often produce site specific work

• Some of the message can be lost when a site specific work is moved,

The space within an object:

• Painters work in implied space.

Implied space:

atmospheric perspective:

• forms in the distance are represented with less clarity than those represented in the foreground - line and crispness

Size, overlapping and position:

Perspective:

Isometric perspective:

linear perspective;

Foreshortening:

• Seeing a long object head on so it looks compressed.

Raphael - school of Athens - Aristotle’s hand is collapsed = foreshortening illusion, Diogenes thigh, Heraclitus
