Here are the pictures of my second MAJOR Principle of Design assignment. The task was to create an artwork that shows your understanding of any one of the principles. I chose "Contrast" and decided to explore the relationship between organic and geometric/straight lines. The artwork kind of reflects my inner state of being: restraint, chaos, confusion, etc. Handing in the assignment, not knowing which end of the spectrum will everyone's reaction belong to, was pretty nerve-wracking. My only consolation is that my lecturer was aware of the effort and strive I put into it.
It took me a few tries, from trying out with a few randomly-placed masking tapes, to scribbling over the final artwork with regular ol' Sharpie marker.
Trial and error:
The final piece:
The white horizontal strip in the center is supposed to represent a "rubber band" holding all that chaos together. Similarly (as explained by our lecturer), sometimes we need constraints, and we need to know the rules, so that we know when to break them. Philosophy 101, you're welcome.
