My Fusion










RATIONALE



Time wait for no men, it is so unpredictable. It brings sometimes intense joy and then there are time where it bring such pain that could pierce one's heart. How do we all wish we can control time and stop it. How do we all wish at one point in life that we can hold onto time so that we can go back to time when life was all so gleeful and perfect. How do we all wish we can do that? That is what my art piece is portraying. It shows a girl holding to clock that has got no hands which symbolizes the unpredictability of time.She is desperate to stop and hold time because she is afraid of the pain and sorrow she has to go through in life. She is trying to relive the moments where life was so beautiful.The background represents the four seasons like Winter, Autumn , Summer and Spring . These seasons are the metaphors of the phases in life we go through.



How did i infuse Rene Magritte's style?



He uses mundane objects and place them in a way that it becomes a focal point and i used the clock and i covered the face of the girl to evoke one curiosity as these are Rene's style.


How did i infuse my style?



Since i like colours , Iplayed with the colours to bring the best out of the picture. I also played with brush strokes and added textures the picture and I used Photography as a medium instead of painting .



Developments







This is my very rough sketch. It was an spontaneous idea so I drew at the minute and therefore it very sketchy and unclear. Since i had a vivid idea on how the picture is going to be , I just proceed on with the Photo shoot without doing anymore sketches.








I took a lot picture in various angle and finally i was satisfied with this.


I crop out the background, brighten the clock and added the hair flying effect.I also tried to get rid of the reflection in the clock but, i was not too successful with that.







I removed the wordings and the hands of the clock. Later i grey scale the girl's body emphasis on the clock.I also play with filter tool and added effect to the picture and did some other minor adjustment .




Finally , i added background, and played with the filter tool in Photoshop to get the desired effect.
