Rhythm Study, Artist Escher


Rhythm Study, Artist Escher

A sense of movement is created in the drawing by repetition of black and white fish. However, the artist chose to use positive and negative reversal to trick the viewer's eyes and mind so that if one stares at the positive value, they will see the white fish swimming clock-wise. But if their eyes move to the black fish, it would appear the fish are swimming counter-clockwise.
