Surface Decoration. Part 2

So once i had figured out what direction i wanted to go in for this unit i started to focus on an end result.

I knew i wanted to make collages that are based around the theme rural, so animals, nature, scapes, woodland area's and present them in an urban setting.

I decided to start by creating thought out rural collages. I wanted to start by thinking about animals you see in rural places and how that might translate in a rural setting.

I first started thinking about the idea of transport.

I then started playing around with figures and people, i looked a little at city fashion and shop windows.

I then started thinking more about rural landscapes and forests and how i could make collages that included that kind of imagery.

 

I really like the first ones i made, i thought the imagery was really good and i wanted to see if these translated onto buildings well.

Again i thought some of these worked and some didn't, it is pretty interesting that something can look good but once the placement of it has changed it looks wrong.

What i liked about these was the combination of rural and urban as well as how they are placed, what i think works well is when it is in the right place.

I started really thinking about what setting these would work in, thinking about the position, scale and how it works with the real world environment.
