I have many paintings in my house with intricate designs. Their complexity never ceases to entertain me as long as I don't look at them from the side and see their true nature: flat.
Complexity can simulate depth so well that it becomes rather difficult to differentiate that with the truly substantial.
I am still not sure if I care to learn how to anyway. What pleasure can I get from looking at a painting from the side?

	Allegorical pleasure, because the summation is much more than a sum of physical parts. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	That pleasure is just a transient product of the point, or summation, or truth, or whatever. It is sad but true that I need more than that to pull me away from the distraction of complexity. (Reply to this)(Parent)
