For years now I feel that when some people create poster for theatre production, they're usually complicated and they really don't need to be. When I was in the Globe theatre in London I bought this poster that is now on my bedroom wall. The best 3 pounds I've spent : ) It’s just elegant and simple, showing in this simple illustration, the love between the two. Passing his heart to her. Brilliant.
I really want to do a photo shoot with paint! It would be so much fun and if you do it right you might get the same result as this. Beautiful.
Whilst watching a old episode of American Next Top Model, they did a photo shoot where the models had to be like the show Fuerzabruta. A show from the Argentine creators of the long-running “De La Guarda,” is another entry in a dependable if not exactly venerable genre: theater for people who don’t really like theater. Patrons are not required to think, feel or even sit down for this hourlong sensory bath at the Daryl Roth Theater. Standing and gaping are all that is strictly necessary, although jumping up and down and dancing are intermittently encouraged. They were able to create amazing shots of them as you can see in the first photographs above. But what I really want to do is to find how I can go to see this show! The images below the photographs taken by the American’s Next Top Model look fantastic and want to see it. If I find out where and how I will let everyone know.
I came across Trevelyan who was interested in Surrealism. Influenced by Klee and encouraged by his friendship with Miró and Calder, he gradually developed his own mode of abstract Surrealism. In A Symposium, the image above, Trevelyan combined painting and carving and attached parts to the wooden panel. He later recalled: ‘I had invented a sort of mythology of cities, of fragile structures carrying here and there a few waif-like inhabitants.’ Simple but full of interesting parts and delicate looking. Might try to look at more ideas created by him to see if it can inspire me more in future projects.
A compelling designer I found in the Tate and forgot about till now. His work consist of a map depicts an area of the shore of Cayuga Lake in New York State. Starting at the Andrew Dickson White Museum at Cornell University in Ithaca, Smithson carried a mirror northwards to the Cayuga Salt Works. At eight locations, marked on the map with Letraset letters, he placed the mirror in the landscape and photographed it. The images in the mirror were not intended to record the sites themselves but, rather, to show nature reflected back at itself. Nice idea and it was similar to an idea I had in the silence project of a peaceful reflection.
With the silence project I mentioned, I’ve decided to go with my thought that silence is when someone doesn’t communicate, but does it have to be someone. Could it be when something doesn’t communicate? Everyday we are given information and people take it for granted. Thanks to Jemma she handed me a piece of paper that explained how communication whether it’s from a digital clock, t.v. Advert, Logo, boy or girl sign in the toilet, is all a form of this. This is defiantly what I would like to concentrate on. How the world would be silent without visual communication. As I think about it more and more I hope to be able to visually show this for the next meeting.
He is a sculptor, best known for his public art installations typically featuring very large replicas of everyday objects. I was able to see his work for myself and that’s the plug image above and I just found it to be very unique and fun side to looking at it all. I like looking outside of graphic design for inspiration sometimes as it sometimes looking outside of the box in different design environments. Fun to look at and sometimes out of the ordinary.
