Competition.

I'm done with this blog - I am done with my stupid writing as well, I feel like I stopped making sense two posts ago. Therefore, this post will be made out of pictures!
Maybe I'll come back later and fill it out with fake philosophy.

Shortly. Competition was set by Royal Opera House - 'Please, make people of age 20-30 come to the opera or to the ballet. Make us exciting, relevant and accessible.'

Sure! I couldn't deal with that on a level which probably works best and sells itself easily - that is a good, witty idea presented by nicely photoshopped picture - for examples, go to the tube.
No, I wanted to present that in a illustration, colourful and exciting, bold and catching an eye, an illustration which speaks with no words. Let me show you, how I tried to achieve that.

STAGE ONE: inspiration!

Bauhaus everywhere in my life.

Dance and colour! Polish matchbox label. 

Probably this painting had the biggest impact on me - it's Electric Prisms by Sonia Delaunay - simply, I think this painting looks exciting, like it's dancing - without no obvious depiction of objects. 

And funnily, this one became my greatest inspiration - just the cut out shape. You'll see.

STAGE TWO: collage try outs!

STAGE THREE: having fun with linocuts!

STAGE FOUR: linocuts make love with pencils!

I love this pose so much!

STAGE FIVE: linocuts made love with pencils and they had threesome with Photoshop! (maybe they shouldn't have had it)
