happy (not so happy) yom kippur.

the previous 4 comps clearly look ridiculously similar. each one underwent slight modifications. the composition is a collage of 3 found images. i really wanted to express the importance of creativity in regards to my lifestyle. 'the perfunctory' addresses what i feel to be the monotony and stagnant quality of standard 9-5 profession and the fear of falling into that pit of death (no offense). the beauty of living a creative lifestyle is that the sense of unexpectedness always exists.

  1. Allison,
    You bring up a good point regarding your different studies for the last project, they do look almost identical. You arrived at a design and then pretty much stuck with it. It wasn't a bad design or anything, in fact it was pretty good, but next time maybe take advantage of the process to try new things. Maybe on the next project...

  2. I agree that you shouldn't settle on an idea right away, but it did come out well. It got you point clearly across, though the hole in the chest was a little confusing pre-explanation. The expression on the face also did a good job of drawing in the viewer, one of the harder things to do :)
