註釋Cohesion is a concept that most artists are aware of on quite an intuitive level. In basic terms, it can be described as a sense of unity or harmony that is either sought or rejected during the process of creating artwork in any media. It applies both to individual works and how groups of artworks interact together to make up a unified whole. If cohesion is not the objective, an artist might actively strive to create tension through disunity, leading viewers to experience a level of discomfort or agitation. That said, a degree of tension is also desirable in works that are ultimately cohesive. Here, the constructed balance of individual elements is key, creating interactions between form, space, colour, line, shape, value and texture. The interplay of these elements often draws on principles of repetition, proportion, emphasis, and rhythm to both disrupt and unify within individual works or bodies of work.
