Art of Interpretation
Interpretation: Science, Skill or Art?
Dictionaries define interpretation as a mental representation of the meaning or significance of something.
Much of what we create, read, hear and see is subject to interpretation. From producers to consumers, everyone is an interpreter. It’s a two way process that involves a little bit of science, skill and art.
Illusions and mind games are interesting, too. Dictionaries define illusions as an erroneous mental representation or distortion of a sensory perception.
How do we interpret what we see? Take a look.
