Urban Artifact: Phase 4

From this project, I have learned two different figure, stable and ambiguous figure-grand. My favorite part of this project is using the exacto knife to cut off the shape I want, although my desk was scratched, but its still a very nice experience. From the beginning to the end of the project, I have changed many details on my creations from phase to phase, I thought I could make them better. Indeed, I did make them better but I lost the concept of the words. I thought if I make the image simple enough and clear, it will be a stable figure, but stable figure have an imbalance of figure and ground (70/30), wherein the ground “supports” or surrounds the figure. This is what I have done wrong. And I hope in the next project I can clearly understand and memorize this little details.

Project #1 Introduction (Final)

Hey, My name is Xingfu, but I prefer people call me Ruky! I’m from ZheJiang, China, 18 years old. I came to N.Y. 4 years ago, still learning English. My major is graphic design, I haven’t decide what I want to be in future yet. currently I’m interest post videos on YouTube. I like to listen electrical and instrument music. I spend most of my free time playing games and making videos of game play, such like GTA v, Minecraft, and League of legends. I also watch anime, my favorite anime is one piece, Fairy tail, and Pokemon. Sometime I like to draw my own anime character.

The avatar of mine is one of my drawing, I hope people can see me from this drawing. In my avatar, the boy has red hair which is my favorite color. The halo means sometime I’m act silly. Hand covering mouth, I’m very shy when first meet people, but when we become good friends, I will show more of my self and they will be thinking “oh! so this is his ultimate form!”  The wings, people some time think I have two different personality, because sometime I made people feel I’m a very friendly and peaceful person, nice to talk with. But some time I make them feel like I’m ruthless and a careless man, this is because I felt boring. Anyway, the point is I don’t have two personality. The poor looking clothes means that i’m not born in a wealthy family, but not that poor. The drawing is exaggerated.

People might think my avatar differently. The wings, I think most people will think that the wings means i have multiple personality, or double standard of my mind. The halo, people might think that i’m good person, but actually I’m not.

My profile will convey that my personality is not exactly like how my avatar have shown. This matter because I don’t want people think how I truly am by looking my avatar. And I hope people can know more about me by reading my profile.

Urban Artifacts: Phase 3

Stable figure took 30 minus to finish, and ambiguous figure took 60 minus to finish, overall it took an hour and half to finish.

Cut Paper Compositions

In this phase, the project compare to previous one. I used more time to finishing it, and I also changed some small detail. However, you can still easily figure out which one is stable and which one is ambiguous. One thing, this phase is better than the previous one is that the dark space is more completely and filled than the previous phase.

Cosmopolitan

noun / cos·mo·pol·i·tan

the ideology that all human beings belong to a single community, based on a shared morality.

(SOURCE – Wikipedia)

This word was found in the reading Univers Strikes Back, “the Princeton philosopher and ethicist born and raised in Ghana, has questioned the values of multiculturalism in the name of a new “cosmopolitanism,” literally, “world citizenship.”  Now I understand that this word means a thought that all human had same by sharing morality.

Discovery: Avatars

Avatar: Barralesleo

What I observe:

  • A deer
  • Deer made with colors in shape
  • White background

Interpretations:

  • He probably likes deer a lot
  • If this is his art, he probably like to make art in color shapes
  • White background maybe means he like show himself to people, very honest, nothing to hide.

Paragraph

I choose this avatar is because it attracts my sight when i see through the member list, In this avatar, i saw a deer create with colors in shape, and in front of a blank, white background. The deer shows that he probably likes deer. The deer was create in color shapes, I think if this is his creation, he probably likes to create art like this. And the blank, white background shows that he like to show himself to people, very honest, and nothing to hide.

I can’t really tell that all of my interpretations are correct after I read Barralesleo’s profile. However he does like art.
