27. Crystallographic Balance (All Over Pattern)



Crystallographic balance in a visual piece is made up of equal emphasis throughout it entirely, not just in sections. It is constant repetition everywhere so that the entire piece is the focal point. This photo of the print on a leopard is an example of crystallographic balance as the entire body of a leopard is covered in dark spots that are not all the same shape, but are everywhere throughout and create an equal emphasis.
