Exploring Tessellations:

Exercise:
• Create a tessellation with visual images that contradict each other.
• Create repeated tessellating images first by trying out geometric patterns and the final one    by using iconic realtistic images. These could be objects, animals, plants, nature etc.
•  Try towards creating visually interesting (not simple) tessellations.
• The image could be in colour with gradational variations. 
• Use tracing paper on top of the original image to try out form variations and to do your    initial sketches.
• You could use illustration software application like Illustrator to draw your final solution.

Note:
While trying to do tessellation, one needs to try this out as alternatives on paper. It is also useful to use tracing paper or a backlit surface for this exercise.

Total Time Duration: 15 hours of studio time.
