From line to relief

An eye meets yours. The surrounding lines draw you further in.

In Bjørn Moe Aldema's 2005 drawing, lines curl around the eye and gather into spirals. This digital adaptation lifts them from the page, giving the drawing depth.

Drag to turn the relief. Move the Depth slider to explore the surface between flat and raised. You can also adjust both sliders with the arrow keys.

The relief follows contours taken from a photograph of the original. Its colours and heights belong to the new digital interpretation.

The eye comes forward. Lines become ridges and hollows, and light changes the drawing as you turn it.
