Question

Which of the following is not true regarding the use and importance of symmetry?

Answer 1

Answer:

c.  It creates differentiation between each part through the use of dimension and scale.

Explanation:

Symmetry is a visual representation that is the same on both sides. On the middle of the image is an imaginary or real mirror line, and on either side of it, the object or picture is the same, only reversed as if in the mirror.

In art, symmetry is beneficial because it gives a sense of harmony and balance, making it more appealing to the observer.

If the parts of the image are different, the image is not symmetrical. This is why the statement under c) is not describing symmetry – it should not have differentiating parts that vary in size and measurements.

The statement under c. is likely describing asymmetrical balance, which creates harmony through the lack of symmetry and various shapes and sizes.
