Major: Fashion Design BFA
Medium: Cut paper collage on illustration board.
Faculty: Diana Shpungin
Prompt: From the course: Focusing on the elements of design, effective composition and gestalt principles, students create a detailed cut paper collage using iconic objects as a vehicle for abstraction.
I wanted to use digital collage and translate it into an analogue medium, so that I would create each of the images from the digital collage into a medium of cut paper silhouettes. I also wanted to take something easily symbolic and instantly recognizable and distort it. This way it evoked the idea of the American flag, while also evoking a sense of anxiety.
