4 week project - Conceal and Reveal
I have explored the concept that our eyes can conceal/reveal our true thoughts.
Initial observational drawing.
Subtle layering of coloured pencil.
Edits using photocopies and watercolour pencils.
Exploring the range of emotions shown simply by the eyes.
Using a surrealism concept of 're-placing' the eyes whilst the mouth creates a different emotion.
'Re-placing' a drawing rather than a photograph.
Exploration of facial movements.
Hand-made flipbook.
Various combinations of the flipbook.
Distortion.
Two pieces of tracing paper, each with a different face, placed against the window allows more light to pass through. This concept really resolved my theme of conceal and reveal.
