Research post
On this week I am researching one piece of art, which is relevant to my work.
update: According to my last post I have changed the name, and chose a Zephyr using an online source for generating names. As my previous names were Opulux and Cormano, this time I put more attention to the meaning and how this related to the work I made. As Zephyr means a tiny little breeze, as well as marshmallows in Ukrainian language, it gives a gentle and sophisticated meaning.
As the name of my project is Zephyr, which means a tiny little breeze, I am willing to find something which will expres a relief and fly. I was thinking about a butterfly or other insects.
There is a piece of work by Diego Andrade (January 2024). He is a Visual artist from Mexico.
The artist wants to communicate with us through his unique style. He uses a psychedelic motives. This picture is the evidence.
This butterfly is so attractive, bright, but at the same time is it sophisticated.
The colours he used are violet, orange and green - which are secondary colours.
This logotype relates with my work because of its style. using curve lines, using insect as, using bright colours.
The main focus of the image is inside the butterfly. There are eyes, which shows us the surrealism.
"Surrealism aims to revolutionise human experience. It balances a rational vision of life with one that asserts the power of the unconscious and dreams. The movement’s artists find magic and strange beauty in the unexpected and the uncanny, the disregarded and the unconventional." (Accesses on 14 of February)
Image includes a disturbed shapes (circles, lines, curves). Mark making technique is a hatching.
The biggest influence of this work is a colours, shapes, and lines. I will be using some of these aspects in my work. I will create a pattern from disturbed circles and lines. I will use insect as a main logotype.
In my next work I will show sketches of my logotype.
