PROJECT 02 THE ' EXPLORATION' TASK 2b - THE 'ELEMENTS'

2D ABSTRACT - POINT & LINE

THE TASK FOR THIS ASSIGNMENT WAS TO CREATE A 2D ABSTRACT BASED ON THE ORDERING PRINCIPLES FOUND IN THE COLLAGE FROM ASSIGNMENT 1 (THE 'WALK OF LIFE') THE ORDERING PRINCIPLES FROM THE COLLAGE: AXIS - PATHWAY. DATUM - PATHWAY. REPETITION - TREES AROUND THE PARK. RHYTHM - VEGETATION.

HOW ORDERING PRINCIPLES ARE USED IN THE 2D ABSTRACT: AXIS - RED TRIANGLE REPRESENTS THE PATH. DATUM - RED TRIANGLE (PATHWAY) THAT IS CONNECTED TO OTHER PARTS OF THE PARK. REPETITION - TRIANGLES. RHYTHM - DIFFERENT SHAPED AND SIZED TRIANGLES.

PROJECT 02 THE DIFFERENCE IN HEIGHT REPRESENT THE DIFFERENT HEIGHTS OF THE GROUND IN THE PARK AS WELL AS THE DIFFERENT HEIGHTS OF THE VEGETATION (TREES, GRASS ETC...).

COLOUR CHOICES: RED - GETS PEOPLES ATTENTION (MAIN PATHWAY).

GREEN - SURROUNDING VEGETATION. WHITE - OTHER PATHS ALONG THE MAIN PATH WHICH HAVE A WEAKER PRESENCE COMPARED TO THE MAIN PATH. THE WHITE LINES BELOW SHOW THAT PEOPLE IN THE PARK ARE CONNECTED

BY THE MAIN PATH AT ALL PARTS OF THE PARK. (DATUM)
