Idea 1: Dismembered Letters
Idea 1 is based around letters tableaux and Hannibal‘s sculptures made out of dismembered bodies. This idea was also heavily influenced by ornament and letters being incorporated into the image itself. This is why I came up with the idea of using images and/or negative spaces to create letter shapes. I’m going to experiment with color and different techniques of producing the letter form such as drawing the design with ink and then adding color in Photoshop.
Idea 2: Anatomy Collage
Idea 2 is also inspired by Hannibal however it focuses more on the concept of bodies being rearranged hence the idea of making a collage emerged. This idea was also influenced by one of the underlying themes of this project; texture. I’m going to experiment with human anatomy artists and sketches rather than simple magazine cut outs which I’ve used for my first collage. I’m also going to experiment with Photoshop to further manipulate and develop my letter form.
