Dolphin Laugh

Season 4 Episode 401 | 26m 46s

Form, in art, means the whole of a piece’s visible elements and the way those elements are united. In this context, form allows viewers to mentally capture the work and understand it. Wyland demonstrates the two interpretations of form through his depiction of a bottlenose dolphin against a water element.
