Reflection:
I definitely need to do more iterations of my design ideas to flesh them out and explore my ideas further. I need to do more artist research to see how other people have explored similar ideas and to get inspired to push my project further or to just see a different perspective and observe new ideas.
Going forward i will develop my two main elements through more iterations. The food element of my design and the psychedelic environment it sits in.
I will research designers who have explored unique ideas surrounding food, covid space and psychedlic exhibitions or environments.
To do:
Develop food element of design.
Designer research to do with food.
designer research to do with covid
Designer research to do with psychedelic space
Experimenting with materials:
Pleating patterns applied to acrylic sheet to distort light and add colour to a space. The way the pink acrylic plays with colour when looking through it, creates purples, oranges and pinks. Very psychedelic. When the light travels through it the shadow takes on an awesome pink broken up by the pleating. A very cool shadow.
I pleated in a diagonal pattern with the mirror board and loved the result. The way the reflective surface catches the light in the folds is incredibly eye catching. The reflective nature also helps to create the illusion of it being a soft material and distorts the reflection. I like the idea that looking into these objects, you get to see a different, warped reality that lives within the reflection and the shadow of these objects.
