Uni Summer Project part 3 (primary research)

after collecting my Secondary Research i need to go out and take my own photographs (primary research) of things repesented the words (Light, Shade, Shadow, Definition, Form and Profile) i looked at when i was collecting my secondary research. So i went and started looking at the places around me trying to see if i could relate anything to these words that i found defined silhouette.

my next part of the project was to collect secondary research of images that captured my attention and reminded me of the theme silhouette. Whilst researching this part of the project i looked up what the word Silhouette actaully meant, so whilst researching i kept in mind the words Light, Shade, Shadow, Definition, Form and Profile. As well as looking at the negative space around objects.

i also came across Antony Gormley whose work of silhouettes is more close to that of a person but yet at the same time i like how he creates it using different means of materia

I also came across Ai Weiwei's work which i found fascinating how he takes the silhouette of a chandelier and turns it on different angles to give a whole new shape and perspective .

continuing on from part one the next artist i am going to be looking at is Christo. i like how he take a building or a structure and covers it taking away the details to create a more simple but effectively impacting shape.

the first part of my summer project (Silhouette) for university, i decided to start by look at other artists that i felt related to the topic. so i started by looking at Rachel Whiteread first . Her work is amazing how she takes a mold of an object and in return u get the negative space left behind from the mold.
