Perspective

-



Perspective is a visual element in art and design that is used to represent three dimensional objects on a flat surface. This conveys objects appearing smaller on bigger, depending on the eye line above or below the horizon. Objects appearing smaller into foreshortening effect is created by standing in distance, away from it. Whereby objects appearing bigger is conceived by standing close to it. However, this logic applying to objects can change from standing in another position to the objects.

Different Perspectives

One point is when objects appear smaller in a single vanishing point, meeting in the middle. Two point perspective is when buildings have two vanishing point into the distance where the lines meet, and it is create by standing in the middle of an object in the distance. Three point perspective is when a cube has three vanishing point, this is created when standing above the object.

Clay sculpture

I constructed a clay sculpture to communicate the objection of average size models, in the fashion industry in perspective. This was created to show how biased and manipulative, of people thinking that clothes look better on small size models of a tall physique. This clay conveys the realistic reality of women's body in the society of having short and tall average weight.

However, the idea of using physique as perspective comes from the idea of pursing fashion as a career, as i enjoy designing and making garments. This shows the rule of perspective because, the heights gets smaller when it is close to the vanishing point like perspective.

The Wall Project

 For the wall project, I was put in a group of four organised by choosing numbers from a bowl of number 20. My group mates were Rica, David and Oana. A lecture was given of the different themes to choose from, as the subject matter of the wall. The common interest was on Donald Trump, and  decided to create sketches communicating the political issues surrounding him. Rica chose to do a sketch of  King Jong Un with his middle finger up to Trump, as a mockery of their unbalanced relationship. David made a sketch of the Mexican president destroying the American flag, as  way of objecting the plans to build wall around Mexico. Oana did sketches of Donald Trumps being a joker, of his extreme political ideas. My idea was the manipulation of the good relationship between Russia and America, of secretly planning wars against each other with missiles. All of these aspects were considered, and each of us drew our section on the wall. The ideas were drawn on a large scale with pencil, and black c

Pablo Picasso is a Spanish painter, sculptor and printmaker, who was born in Malaga, Spain on the 25 th  of October 1881, and unfortunately died in April 8th 1973. He collaborated with Georges Braque, to establish the art movement of cubism, which began in 1907, after the construction of the following artwork of, “Les Demoiselles d ’Avignon” which was initially produced to promote the cubist movement. This image is a demonstration of the artwork of, “Les Demoiselles d’ Avignon” which is translated as “The Young Ladies of Avignon”. This particular oil canvas painting consists of five naked women, posing provocatively in a glass front shop displace, advertising their bodies to the general public, in the streets of Barcelona. The way in which I was able to identify, that the women were posing in front of a glass panel was that, in Amsterdam there’s a place called a red light district, were you would discover a huge prostitutes posing in front of a glass panel, attracting visitors, as well

The symbolism of traditions in Ghana

Traditional cultures are a combination of past and present practices of a certain group of people, who adopts beliefs into everyday life. This has connection with our ancestors and is associated with tribes in African countries, to maintain the same values of religious practices and ritual for thousands of years. Traditional practices have conflicts with modern practices, as something deemed acceptable to traditionalist are frown upon by modern people. As a result, there are constant battles between the older and younger generation. Traditional people are thought to have narrow mind set to modern people and find it difficult to adjust to the modern world and are often challenged to think otherwise. Traditional practices are similar to traditional dresses that varies from countries to tribes. In this case the traditional dress of Ghana is Kente cloth, which some are handwoven or printed. The design of the cloth is a repeated geometric pattern in vibrant colours that is used for special
