RELATIONSHIPS

Repetition - Development and
Variations of the Repetition Structure
Unit forms can be photocopied [or traced] and cut out to explore all possible repetitions. A form can also be traced and then flipped over to obtain a mirror image. Superunit forms created this way can relate to each other in a different pattern of repetition, resulting in regular, but not monotonous, compositions. Isolated background shapes can be changed from white to black to achieve variations.

The structural grid can be made visible as actual lines of definite breadth, or made to become edges of spatial cells, embellishing the unit or superunit forms.
