Figure 7: Images showcasing pictorial representation (pg

As expressed by Hardy, pictorial representation refers to “figurative portrayal of movement (through sculpture, painting, and such)” (Hardy, 2011). Thus, pictorial representation consists of sculpture, painting, and relief. Sculptures and relieves imply a sense of movement induced whether by proliferating patterns or potential or future movement imagined. In other words, a sculpture contained by space implies an action. Similar to photography, a painting captures a specific moment of a particular sequence of motions. Therefore, like many other phenomena in nature, the event of movement can be painted. With that said, painting on walls, ceilings, or floors—mainly referred to as composing elements of the form—can be treated as an emanation of motion. Accordingly, sculpture and painting are regarded as types of movements instead of architectural elements of movement. It is because they depict a moment of a series of motions. Similar to sculpture or painting, modern buildings may feature a pictorial representation. Asefi highlights that some buildings are designed as a “Virtually Live Body”. He has defined this as “Frozen Transformation” (Asefi, 2012). A building, in this sense, has to be seen and perceived in many facets. Figure 7
