Form Definition

Form Definition

Forms is a three dimensional shape, such as a cube, sphere or cone.

Sculpture and 3D design are about creating forms.

In 2D artworks, tone and perspective can be used to create a illusion of form.

The snail being on a flat surface contrasts to its form because the snail shell is natural and spiral shaped whereas the surface is man made and flat.

I like how the picture has been taken at night and therefore it shows off only the form of the tree as opposed to the colour etc and so the form of the tree is prominent on a clear backdrop.

the mass of ladybirds together shows off the similarity in form, all the animals are the same shape and form but yet  all slightly different sizes.

The babies legs together like this shows off the manipulation of the human form and so the image shows the creation of a different form with the same body parts.

• My definition: form is the composition of different elements brought together to make a whole, it is a 3 dimensional object of any type.
