COMMUNICATION IS DEAD
SIMPLICITY
i personally felt that nowadays our communication are so different from when it used to be...
in the ages of technologies...
we have all lost the foundation of communication...
the simplicity of it...
but these days...
people are losing the true meaning communication with each other...
so my series are inspired by the fact that we need to go
BACK TO BASIC
these are my 18 rough sketches of ideas
Basically, my concept is the union between simplicity and basic of all basics.
In other words, using the ideas from cubism in breaking down a normal object into its individual parts and reassembled all of those parts into one art piece, I’m breaking down communication into its basic form and reassembled it again into an idea of rebuilding communication.
Therefore all three piece are pretty much focused heavily on simplicity in terms of the techniques as well as the shapes and organization

Maximum of three colours will be used in this series to continue to concept of simplicity
The three colours are BLUE, GREEN, BROWN
Bare minimum of typography will be used and if possible no typography will be included into the final design to focus more on the design rather than the typography
However, the typography will be hand drawn using illustrator to keep the organic style of the series.
As you can see, the sketches uses a lot of lines and shapes in defining the object which is the basis for the entire series, value will be added in terms of the different shading of different areas as well as different shades of colours will be used as well however each artwork will only have a maximum of three colours.
The texture will be a smooth and solid texture to reduce complexity.
The alignment and proportion of the objects will seems as though it was placed at random but each position of the object is suppose to help the eyes of the audience to move from one point to another point in a flowing manner
In terms of the hierarchy of the design, the background and the front object will be overlapping each other however the front object is the focus of the art piece therefore will be at the forefront instead.
Symmetry is attempted in hoping to achieve balance in the art piece by having equal amount of objects and design at both sides of the art piece.
In terms of proximity wise, each object are placed very closely to each other to eliminate any white space in between with a specific rhythm and repetition to it to create a sense of unity and not just a big mess on a canvas
