Domino Art
A domino is a small rectangular block, thumb-sized or slightly larger, the face of which is either blank or marked by an arrangement of spots, resembling those on a die. A set of 28 such blocks forms a complete domino set. The word is also used for any of the various games played with them.
The history of both the word and the game is rather obscure, although a number of theories have been advanced to explain their origins. One of the most widely accepted is that the name comes from a garment worn together with a mask during carnival season or at a masquerade. The garment, which in English was called a “domino cloak,” was typically worn in contrast to a priest’s white surplice, and the black domino playing piece may have been designed to bring this image to mind.
Dominoes are sometimes used for artistic purposes, such as to create a pattern on a wall or to form pictures. Hevesh, who has created a number of pieces using this medium, explains how she plans out her installations. First she lays out a diagram of the layout, using arrows to show how the dominoes are supposed to fall. She then test-lays each section, and films it in slow motion to make sure that it will work as intended.
Once the layout has been tested, she begins assembling the dominoes. She starts with the largest 3-D sections, and then adds the flat arrangements and finally the lines of dominoes that connect everything together. She often uses a theme for her creations, and this helps her plan out the design of each section before she starts putting it all together.
Domino art can be as simple or as elaborate as you want. You can use straight lines, curved lines, grids that form pictures when they fall, or 3D structures like towers and pyramids. Some artists also use dominoes to create a piece of art that tells a story or makes a political statement. In addition, people have used dominoes to create abstract patterns and designs.
Another interesting aspect of Domino is its ability to inspire change in behavior. The concept is known as the Domino Effect, and it states that when you change a certain behavior, it will trigger a chain reaction in other behaviors that are related to it. For example, if you start exercising more regularly, it is likely that you will start to eat healthier as well.
