"Other World" is a woodcut print by M.C. Escher, known for his mind-bending perspectives and impossible architectures. The artwork presents a surreal scene where gravity seems to work in multiple directions, with a celestial sky visible through different arches, creating an illusion of multiple realities coexisting.
Escher was deeply fascinated by the concept of perspective and relativity. This piece is one of his earlier explorations into the theme of impossible spaces, which he later perfected in works like Relativity. Some speculate that his background in architectural studies influenced this particular work, as it challenges traditional spatial perception.
