Puzzles in Art

It is the style of some artists to draw pictures that puzzle the viewers. Moving circles or pictures that we do not know where to start or where to end makes us unable to understand the way these pictures were designed. It is like a magic, but it is only tricky way of art.

Metaphor

I think, since long time ago, people have been using a golden egg to represent wealth. It is very famous metaphor in many places around the world.

Ancient Civilizations

The ancient Civilizations created different shapes and forms to communicate between themselves. They created drawings of things, like people, animals to write a history of incidents. Also, they wrote the different sciences through these shapes and drawings. Here we can see drawings by the ancient pharaohs and the Mayan numbers. We are today trying to read these drawings to be able to know more about these ancient civilizations.

Quote for Design

“Design is directed toward human beings. To design is to solve human problems by identifying them and executing the best solution.”—Ivan Chermayeff

I found this an interesting quote by Ivan Chermayeff like a definition for the word design. Design is things created by human beings to solve his problem. It could be to solve a problem, or to satisfy a need or desire. For example, clothes' designer designs clothes to satisfy his customer desire. Also, human being created the wheel chair to solve the problem for disabled people. Whenever we see a design in our life, it means there was a problem or desire behind this design.

There is no limit for Art and Design

I think we can not limit art and design on a specific field. We expect to have art in all our daily life. It changes and seduces our emotions. Without this relation between art and emotions, we can not call it an art. This cup of coffee is an up normal one because there is a little kind of art added to it. It seems to be different and more attractive cup of coffee that a person like to have in the early morning.
