Thank you for your attention, dear colleagues!

An interesting and somewhat multidimensional artwork, Pierre!

 

Best regards,

Nikita

A very nice creative and original result, Pierre!

 

Thank you Nikita!

 

I wasn't trying to do multidimensional picture, just wanted to distinguish the cubes from the background with applying a shadow!

 

Cheers

Thank you too, Ruud!

Great composition Pierre!!  Like it a lot. ( I recognize the printed circuit patterns in this).  Wonderful contrast and combination of modern and, I assume, ancient patterns.   AJ

Pierre, Ingenious composition. There is indeed a nice contrast between the squares in the three dimensions and the two dimensions. I wonder what is ancient and what is modern? Best regards, Marco

The ancient ( which I guess is a mosaic floor) and a circuit were ideally given their little planet self and merged together in a 3D arrangement  on equal terms ( no one seems to dominate). Above all , I applause the aesthetic standard of the image which is quite high! Bravo, Petraki!

AJ, you assume well!

 

It is the yellow cube which originates from a picture of an ancient mosaic!

 

Thank you for your positive feedback!

 

PDE

Thank you Marco!

 

The ancient is the cube made from a picture of an ancient mosaic in the ancient city of Heraclea Lyncestis founded by Philip II of Macedon, who was the father of Alexander the Great! The modern is the second, green cube which was made of the photo of a circuit of some computer part!

Yassou Hristaki,

 

Only you recognized a mosaic in that mess up there! It must be a proof of your ancient culture origin (like mine)!

 

Efharisto poli, file mou!

 

Kir Petraki!

Modern or ancient, this is an intricate work of Art, one can only appreciate and admire!  Best wishes,

Great Idea Pierre.

Ancient and Modern is not far from each other. Tradition is the link between. It is important to know where we came from. It gives us our identity - sadly a thing that is diminishing in our time.

Great image from a great photographer.

Kind regards

Bela Dick

Dear Pierre,

This is a wonderfully creative work...original in it's traditional garb. I especially like how the cubes are offset, apparently randomly placed and asymmetric to the pattern behind them. Very nice!

Tim

Indeed the asymetry, but the Escher-like change in perspective is more interesting still. An excellent composition, bravo. 

Just excellent, Pierre. The patterned boxes as repeating 3 dimensional representations of the background motif is pure inspiration. This is a very satisfying picture that works on multiple levels.

Dear Pierre, athough the images seem to imitate ceramic, as ancient Greek dishes for example, but really the way you've presented them, the composition and the distribution of the work, reminds me of a wall made of tatami, to something made of wicker, frames, borders. It's my impression, just when I'm looking at them.

Very well achieved the opposition between flatness and cubic. It's what attracts me the most.

I find the circles could be the game of Pacman.... :) Two cubes to play dices.... a disturbing, impressive photo. Can't stop looking at it!

Congratulations Kindest regards, Laura M.

Hi, Pierre! Very nice abstract work. Reminds me all these Pokemons running around and squeaking, always hungry... But knowing you a bit, I keep trying to see more.... Warm regards, Tamara

Intricate indeed, Bachir!

 

Lots of hours of work from the first, initial picture to the end!

 

Thanks for your visit and comment, my friend!

 

PDE

I agree, Bela

 

But this is not an image by a great photographer, on the contrary!

 

Thank you for your contribution!

Dear Timothy,

 

Nothing is random here! I lost the original and decided to remake it, when I was at the point that I had to see a small copy downloaded for that purpose I saw that I made the remake exactly as it was the original, regarding the angles and the positioning!

 

Thank you for your visit and nice comment!

 

PDE

Thank you, John!

 

I don't know what asymmetry means in your mind, certainly the picture isn't completely symmetrical but to some extent it is!

 

PDE

 

Thank you, Jack!

 

I like your critique, simply put and short and all telling!
