CONTRAST : black and white

During our first week at Parsons,  we explored contrast through-

1.NEGATIVE SPACE PAINTING: 

Negative space, in art, is the space around and between the subject(s) of an image. Negative space may be most evident when the space around a subject, not the subject itself, forms an interesting or artistically relevant shape, and such space occasionally is used to artistic effect as the "real" subject of an image.

NEGATIVE SPACE PAINTING

 this style provided a better understanding of form (subject) and its surrounding. it also gave a glimpse into the creation of an abstract painting from a former detailed drawing.

2. TESSELLATION PATTERN:

what is tessellation?

-an arrangement of shapes closely fitted together, especially of polygons in a repeated pattern without gaps or overlapping.

learning how to tessellate simple patterns to produce innovative designs was one of the highlights. it gave us a chance to test our aesthetic ability to identify which among the numerous patterns created would look the best.
