In 2D
A COMPOSITION is a collaboration of elements such as...point, line, shape/form, color(hue), texture, space, and value(shade).
- It exists in not only visual art, but music, literature, nature, and other mediums.
- a composition can have Rhythm, Harmony, Dissonance/discord/contrast, Variation.
When we see a composition it is natural to first see THE WHOLE, but this whole is a composition of many elements and can be described with GESTALT's principles: proximity, closure, continuance, similarity.
In 3D
FORM - The sum total of an objects physical characteristics.
!(separate from meaning/content)!
