Question

When we physically encounter a three-dimensional form, the tactile sensation we experience is its ________. Two-dimensional images, however, have ________, which means the artist creates an effect that reminds us of our tactile memory of a real-life surface. Artists who wish to contradict our previous tactile experiences employ ________ in order to make us reconsider our preconceptions about the world around us.

Answer 1

Answer:

When we physically encounter a three-dimensional form, the tactile sensation we experience is its ACTUAL TEXTURE. Two-dimensional images, however, have IMPLIED TEXTURE, which means the artist creates an effect that reminds us of our tactile memory of a real-life surface. Artists who wish to contradict our previous tactile experiences employ SUBVERSIVE TEXTURE in order to make us reconsider our preconceptions about the world around us.

Explanation:

Actual texture is combination of how an artwork looks and how it actually feels when someone touches it. Even paintings have texture and different artists use different painting techniques to create that texture.

Implied or simulated texture means that the artist is creating a visual effect of texture.

When artists use subversive textures, they are inventing textures by adding alternate materials.
