space and art: new perceptions

These are interesting art piece that plays with the idea of perception -  what we think we see, what are the implications of perspective, how is a view constructed.  Don't just look at the image but try to understand how he did the artwork: http://www.varini.org/02indc/33indcp10.

 

And you can then translate the idea into super graphics to create a whole new way of getting information in space!!
