Assignment 02 - Geometric vs Organic Abstract Art
INTRODUCTION
This assignment is about creating two different 2D abstract artwork base on the same idea which replicates the significant characteristics, principles and styles of the given fashion designers. This is a group project and my groupmates are Tian Xin, Beverlee Choo and Kimberly. Our fashion designer is Brooke Roberts. One of the artwork must be geometric, gridded and ordered while another must be organic and non-geometric.
THE PROCESS
Hence, we began research on Brooke. She is a radiographer who uses inspiration from scan images of the brain and sinuses and uses digital knitting to create her artwork (clothes). Through weekly tutorial in class and guidance from Ms Dee and Ms Reene, we started to have more insights on how to create the artworks. The process of analyzing her design through design elements and principles in beneficial for the artwork creation.
WEEK 1 - MOOD BOARD & RESEARCH
WEEK 2 - CREATING ABSTRACT ARTWORKS
WEEK 3 - MOCK UP ARTWORK
WEEK 4 - REFINE ARTWORK & DRAFT PRESENTATION BOARDS
PRESENTATION DAY
We were given a 5 min verbal presentation to our panels who are Akif Ariff and Mubin from University Malaya.
It trains our presenting skills and we need to convince them on our designs. They gave us some positive feedbacks and ways to improve on our designs.
We were very grateful and appreciate as they squeeze out their precious time of doing their assignments to be our panels for this project.
All of us involved in every design development stages and I was mainly in-charged to do the presentation boards and also helped out in making the fabric artworks. My groupmates helped to make the information more concise and easier to understand.
We learnt to think creatively and critically when analyzing Brooke's significant characteristics. We get a basic understanding on how to do analysis and brainstorming session more effectively.
Through this project, my groupmates and I communicate through face-to-face discussion and WhatsApp group. We share the information through online media. It is very important to look for more and more information through creative website.
The design concept is very important and we need to define early the design approach and continue explore deeply on the concepts.
