奈良美智

Yoshitomo Nara

The colors, the materials and the strokes

She simply drew every weird ideas coming across her head with a very simple figure, a weird little girl living in her heart, with any material available.

DRAWING WORKSHOP: "SPACE"

The space made by our group. A child always like to hide himself inconspicuously in a corner at home, for instance, to make a private space under the dining table and decorate it with his toys and stuffs he loves. That makes him feel safe.

Breaking the 2D and 3D space

Some drawings from peers

The textile is very impressive

Some Complicated Architectural Structures

Guillaume Cornet

 

A very functional way to represent some complicated structures like society, different classes,  social division of labor, etc.

<MAGIC PENCILS>

Deconstruction of a mechanism, a building, etc.

Some Illustrations inspiring me from American Yearbook

I like the atmosphere, the color blocks and the rough strokes the illustrator used to depict the city and the skyscrapers: Black, grey and dark yellow.

how to depict a metropolis that is always in a rush.

A car crammed with people.

A very strong idea to depict a city: the combination among the landmark architectures, the typical streets  and the national flag!

The perspective

R-E-L-A-Y Project Chain

Chain 1

1. The first stage of my work on the briefing day.

 

2. Then I swapped my sketchbook with ZHONG Junkun,  who recorded some noises to convey the feeling of my chaotic lines.

3. Then he swapped his work with  Matilde Catalano.  So the final stage of this chain turned out to be as followed:

  

Chain 2

1. The sketchbook I gained.

2. The figure of this sketch looked as if it had been melting, which reminded me of something expressionistic and miserable. The key words included woman, wires, black, slender and crisscross. So a woman who was melting due to agony came across my head.  I made some sketches to record this inspiration and then I decided to make a sculpture of kneadable eraser because its kneadability  could express the feeling of "melt". I combined the word "crisscross" with my sculpture. The woman tried to grasp the cross in front of her for rescue but that was in vain. The cross was made of paper maché so that it looked damaged.

3. Then I swapped my work with Juuso Anttila and he turned the sculpture into his drawing language.

Chain 3

1. The first stage

2. The second stage from Juuso Anttila

3.  The third stage from me.  I did some analysis trying  capturing the feeling of the animated image and finally drew a storyboard in an abstract way telling a plot of farewell ，in whose three stages the back of the role was gradually disappearing in the crowd.

 

Orienteering around Shoreditch on 10th October

Eight of us went on a mission to orient ourselves around Shoreditch on 10th October.

We had super tasty Vienamese dishes at Huong Restaurant for lunch.

My sketches. I drew down some items inspiring me greatly.

 | KK Outlet Gallery |

| Artwords Bookshop |

We met a very gorgeous bulldog there. To take photos is not allowed in this shop. So I just browsed through several magazines and left. But still I found something very inspiring.

| Kemistry Gallery |

Regretably, this shop was closed.

| Material |

This was my favourite store! Children's books there were particularly cute! Most of them were drawn in a very detailed and traditional way,  expressing a cozy feeling.

| Labour and Wait |

That was the end of our orienteering. I did have a wonderful day :)
