I really admire Henry Moore's work and am looking forward to seeing the huge collection coming to the Yorkshire Sculpture Park from March 7th until Sept.

His daughter had an interview with the Guardian & the quote below is from that.

Would the theory that
'people see two dimensionally' (all of us to a greater or lesser degree) also include photography?
I would say 'yes' because the photograph cuts out time and if time is eliminated then so is space. That's why the photograph is best suited to flat surfaces ........they don't involve space.

From the Guardian...........

'Moore said she worried, in the digital age, that we were losing our skills to see things properly.

“We don’t look at things, it’s terrifying, it’s happening more and more and more. People see two-dimensionally on their phones and laptops and iPads; they don’t see shapes or understand form.

“My father always used to say: ‘How would you draw my hand, this side is dark, this side is lit.’ He was constantly making you think about form." '
