Abstract We introduce the concept of graphical objects, the abstraction paradigms to study them, and their applications in computer graphics. Intuitively, graphical objects encompass all the entities manipulated in a graphics system. This notion makes it possible to unify similar research topics appearing in the literature separately. We study the problem of object metamorphosis, which includes the problem of image metamorphosis. Although we are not primarily concerned with implementation issues in this paper, the concepts we introduce can be exploited for system design and development that use object-oriented programming.
