Unnoticed

UNDERSTAND, THINK AND APPLY… Draw a landscape in which a person, animal or object is camouflaged. You can use a cut-out of a printed image and try to hide it with the arrangement of the shapes or in a background with similar colour and texture.

You will need... Printed images, scissors, glue, graphite pencils, colours, markers. In the perception process, the brain interprets the information it receives. We tend to simplify (we perceive what is simple and common better) and fill in (we relate close objects that are similar, or complete incomplete shapes). Sometimes we look but do not see, therefore, many things go unnoticed. Some beings in nature seek protection by camouflaging themselves with their environment as a way to hide, since it is difficult to differentiate a figure from its background if there is continuity between the lines and the colours of both.
