Elective: Image & Text - Final Piece

These are photos of my final piece for my elective i have been studying this term of image and text.

This piece represents what I learnt in our first lesson, where we were given a piece of text, with the key word that described the creature, replaced by the letter 'X'. From this text we needed to create a image that represented what we though 'X' was.

To illustrate the piece I created a small book, using the original text we were given and created a pop-up illustration of the creature that was described.

Project 05: Ideas - Psychedelic Drugs

After visiting the 'High Society' exhibit, which was based around psychedelic drugs. I decided to research into the main types of these drugs that have a psychedelic effect on people.

The main types I found were:

Hallucinogens

• Salvia Divinorum
• Psilocybin Mushrooms
• LSD
• Mescaline

Depressants

• Opiates
• Tranquillisers
• Alcohol
• Heroin
• Cannabis

Stimulants

• Nicotine
• Amphetamines
• Caffeine
• Cocaine

From this I researched into the effects, the appearances and the slang words for them. This then lead me to research the chemical symbols of these drugs, as it is a visual representation of them and I thought I could present these in a graphical way.

Below are the diagrams for 11 of the drugs listed above.

Project 06: Artist Research - Peter Callesen

Peter Callesen

I researched Callesen for this project as his work is based on paper structure. I though that these paper structures could easily be incorporated into a book structure.
