VCD- Book covers

Image Studio (Alysia Kaplan)

Spring 2010

Project #2: Animal Farm book cover

I enlarged the pig that’s sitting on the horse to show power. I also added decorations on the pigs on the back cover to express materialism. The decorations are patterns from US dollar bills.

1984 book cover

My aim is to communicate the idea of surveillance through a simple layout. Black dominates the background with an eye (Big Brother) staring down to the white space.

VID- 頭文子堅

For those who know Jay Chou and have seen this particular Hong Kong advertisement,

PH- Anti government? (2010)

14x14 inches inkjet print on 20X16 frame

Wall Street, NY

This pieces is called 'Anti government?' because when I asked for a portrait shot, the police on the right asked if I'm anti-government.

PH- Untitled1303 (2010)

11" X 17"archival inkjet print

VCD- Average Letter

Beginning Typography (Kristin Tomsits)

Spring 2010

Project #1: Averaged letter (merging two fonts into one)

PH- American Gothic

This photo that I took reminds me of the painting American Gothic by Grant Wood, which is even more interesting since it was shot right outside the Art Institute. (American Gothic is in the AIC's collection)

PH- Untitled0220 (2010)

8X12" archival inkjet print on 12X16 frame

Hong Kong

I overexposed this image to emphasize on the pure natural landscape (sky and sea), yet this is interrupted and disturbed by manmade industrial transportation.

MISC- Wooden mahjong (In progress)

I had some leftover wood from last semester, so this week I decided to use it, spent a few hours in my spare time and made this. They aren't as yellow as they seem. i just couldn't get hold of tungsten lighting...

VCD- Type poster

Intro to Vis Comm (Mark Stammers)

Fall 2009

Final Project: Type specimen poster

The assignment was to create a poster that tells the features of a specific typeface - mine being Baskerville. I created this T shape structure as the main layout, then add smaller snipets of text to create hiearchy and dimension.
