CH7 Cubist by Jeffrey Court

Chapter 7, Cubist™, was inspired by the Avant Garde movement of Cubism. Strong geometric shapes and high contrast design are leading themes of the Cubism movement and are present in the items featured in this collection. Cubism is commonly known for its use of two-dimensional parts that come together to create a larger perception of depth through the use of perspective. Much like Cubism, the use of tile in a space breaks up entities and reassembles them in an abstract way, allowing the space to be experienced in a unique manner. This specifically applies to the mosaics in this chapter which were designed to highlight the splintered geometric shapes, multiple angles, and perception of depth found in artwork from the Cubism movement.
