Conceptual VS Perceptual Drawing

Conceptual Drawing


"In conceptual art the idea or concept is the most important aspect of the work. When an artist uses a conceptual form of art, it means that all of the planning and decisions are made beforehand and the execution is a perfunctory affair. The idea becomes a machine that makes the art." —Sol LeWitt



Conceptual Drawing is an art in which the concepts or ideas involved in the work take presence over traditional aesthetic and material concerns. 


Here are some of the examples of conceptual drawing: 
Joseph Kosuth, One and Three Chairs (1965)

Marcel Duchamp, Fountain (1917)



Perceptual Drawing


 Perceptual drawing is the engagement of multi-
sensory experiential stimuli combined with the multiplicity of interpretive meanings on the part of an observer or known as optical illusions.
It stimulates human sensory parts such as vision, taste, touch hearing and so on. 

Here are some of the examples of conceptual drawing: 
Bridget Riley, Movement in Squares (1961)

The two circles seem to move when the viewer's head is moving forwards and backwards while looking at the black dot.

The Blogger

The Personal Details
Hi, everyone :)) 
The blogger is  Lim Sze Yee. You guys can call me Serena also. 
I am 20 this year and currently pursuing my studies in HELP.
 I am in my first year, Sem 3 in Psychology. 
I am a 'Kampung' baby from Perlis.


The Interest
I am a Psychology student but I have passion for arts and designs.
My mum sent me to Arts Class since I was in Kindergarten.
 When I grew older, I was totally inspired by those designer's arts and begin to fall in love with it especially interior design. 
Few years ago, I had the opportunity to play with digital camera, and I started to love it. 
I am getting more and more into photography when my mum and dad blessed me with a DSLR.


#Here are some of the pictures captured by me :D





The Dream
Since I was young, I have a desire to study something about arts or designs. 
Actually my mum does not support me on this because she thinks that the future for having a design or art certificate is not secure.
I followed what my mum's advice and study Psychology. 
But in future, I got a dream to study design after I complete my Psychology. 
I know that I have the passion into it. 
Besides, I wish that I can travel along with my DSLR and capture nice and photos that inspired.
 I love travelling and exploring the world. And I will gain ideas and inspirations from different peoples, cultures, religions and so on.
I hope to start my backpack travelling very soon.


The Aspiration
My aspiration towards my life is to complete my degree and have a secure job for future. 
When I earn enough, I will start my journey of travelling from different places to different places and snap a lots of pictures. 
I plan to take up design course in future when times allow me to.
Lastly, I hope to become a well-known designer with my own brands in future.
