cube to hexagon - case study 1- wildetect concept





I am really fascinated with shapes that switch visually between the 2 dimensional and 3 dimensional perspective whilst drawn in 2 dimension. Like a flat drawn cube changes to a hexagon when looked at in an orthographic view in 2 dimension. I try to apply this visual nuanced concept to the disintegration of perspective buildings i am roughly design sketching. Maybe the pyramids are a giant x which uses this concept of 3d form to 2d graphic on a scale earth canvas? A 3d shape creating a 2d image. This wildetect Africa fauvistic creative design concept is now worth exploring.

Busy with some rough case studies. The idea that artist dabbled in scientific conceptualization inspired the cubists. Why shouldn't it fire a Muizenberg design creative 100 years hence?
