Repetition and Rhythm Assignment


            This image may only show vertical lines, but the image means much more. This picture lets you imagine what the picture could be, instead of what it should be. It’s almost like looking at stars and looking for any connections between them to form an image.
            The lines in this picture are obviously vertical but if you haven’t noticed, each line has a specific type of thickness. The line in the middle of the picture is the thickest line out of the whole image. The rest of the lines begin to get thinner as they get closer to the edge of the picture. This gives the image ‘proportion’. The lines could represent objects in proportion, or they could be connected somehow creating form and shape. All these lines are also strangely straight 90 degrees. These lines are also spaced apart from each other in many different distances; some of the lines are far from each other and some of them are almost right beside each other. Looking at this picture, you can’t really tell which direction they are pointing. They could be pointing upwards to the sky, or pointing downwards to the ground. These lines could even be pointing at the viewer. The picture may not have much movement so it is a “steady

            The way I made this image was by creating a two-point perspective based image, then I erased everything except for all the vertical lines. The actual image before this one was just made of many straight buildings. Having to only look at vertical lines from an original image give a completely different feel and completely different thoughts. The mood of the image cannot be described well because of the simple thick and thin, black and white lines. The mood could be despair and sadness or it could be a continuous happiness.
             The second picture is an abstract dynamic design. I started by sketching many abstract designs that was inspired by “Nujabes” cover art for his albums. The flow of the image starts at the right middle border when 4 lines rhythmically move downwards. Then lines right above curve around to the top right corner of the image. The lines at the top left corner give the image balance because if those lines were not there, then the movement of the image would only be going one way. Instead of looking at each individual line, start from one area to the next. You may not think the image is balanced but the movement of the image is actually moving in a oval shape, almost circular. Most of these lines are just copy and pasted like the 4 lines at the bottom half of the image, and the top left corner.
