Ideas Generation: The Martians Have Landed RE-ASSESMENT

Idea of this post is to draw ideas of my project and explain what I want to do but i can not use any words to explain this. 

Here is my explanation:


The picture above is explenation of what I wanted to create in this term. It was task that we had to create for class task. Tutor asked as to draw the idea that we have to explain it but we can nit use the words. My first idea at that moment was to recreate famous movie posters in expressionism style. However, the idea developed after all. 


to create this poster I was trying to use lot of colours like sky in the painting 'The Scream'. I wanted my painting to be distorted, exaggerated and primitive. Because, Expressionism is mostly about feelings and show the artist's own sensibility to the world's representation, I was trying to shaw what colours I see and recreate the picture in my way of 'seeing' it. 

However, looking at that outcome I think that it is not exactly what I wanted to achieve. I do not hate it, however I thing that it could be improve to looks more like in style of the expressionism.

Creating this outcome I was inspired by work of Wassily Kandinsky 'Street with Women'. Kandinsky was a Russian painter and art theorist. He was more known as an abstract painter, however he also was a leading exponent of Expressionism. 

In this painting I really liked the way he used the colours. I wanted to use similar technique in my artwork as well.

  1. Have you thought about making posters for fictional movies? Part of your project could be to invent a series of your own expressionist films - so you invent the director, the title, the story behind the film and then develop a package of designs for a franchise of films or a package to promote a single film.

    Add some text to what you were doing here with the images above and how it fits into your theme. Also, I am not absolutely sure the last image is 'expressionist' - as in my comment for the last post, look at the Expressionist art movement for a better idea of the VISUAL style.
