Perspective continues to develop through new theories, technologies, instruments, methods of imaging and ways of understanding spatial representation.
Contemporary perspective studies extend beyond traditional drawing and projection to include digital modelling, computational methods, new visual media, expanded forms of vision and new approaches to the relationship between physical and represented space.
Use the subjects below to explore some of these developing areas.
Levels of Abstraction
Explore how different levels of abstraction affect the description, analysis and representation of spatial reality.
