RE: Uncertain Limits: Inversions, Reflections, & Perspectives

Escher was truly a genius. I'm amazed at the way he displayed the opposing qualities in his works, each one reflects our dualistic nature perfectly and takes the viewer to the the world beyond.. Trippy and liberating.

Thanks for sharing this wonderful collection and have a great day.

Thanks for reading it, and for taking the time to comment.

While the duality-polarity is apparent to me, I don’t think it was an explicit thing for him, or at least that he experienced it and expressed himself in that way. Based on what I’ve read about him, it seems his fascination was more in the geometry of what he was looking at, whether it was a landscape or a reflection.

It's surprising that he didn't know about the concept of duality. If that is the case, then his psychic vision was sharp enough to give him such outstanding perspectives.
