vanishing point
The vanishing point is the mythical spot where parallel lines in perspective supposedly meet at infinity. Worshipped by painters, architects, and self-styled influencers alike for its drama and mystique. Yet no one has ever truly reached it, despite all their skill. It’s the magic device that gives depth to a flat world, while simultaneously mocking those who chase it. Novices find comfort in its name and lose confidence the moment they try to draw it—an ironic paradox of art.
