Third Project: Music

 


    The third project I had to complete for ART 212 was revolved around music. For the assignment we had to create a piece that depicted our own music taste. For this piece, instead of creating a collage of many different artists like most people in the class did, I focused on my favorite artist, Rex Orange County, and wanted to depict how his music feels to listeners. Taking key symbols from his music and albums, the DREAM balloons and the sunflowers, I created a safe and calming aesthetic with the singer as the main focal point. I worked in sections similar to how I created my other pieces, this time really focusing on the rendering of the face and flowers, redeeming myself from the second project. Ultimately, this piece made up for my mistakes from the second project and was highly successful.

The objects/lines around the woman's head acts the same way, also creating a halo effect that adds to her presence. Finally the microphone in the corner acts as a way to emphasis the meaning of the piece and its importance. The words projected on her face and body depict ...
