Xerox Projejct- "So Fly"


This is the Xerox Project for class. The assignment was challenging for a few reasons: 1. It is slightly awkward walking into a library or office and starting to xerox your body; 2. Trying to come up with an idea that takes your body and transorms it into a new image. Eventually, my inspiration for this design was a skull and crossbones. I then had the idea to use images of my hands to create wings. The wings definitely were my favorite part of the project.

  1. That is one cool, creative, and hip collage. I love that your design was very sharp and clean finish. I also liked what you did with the colors and its contrasts as well as holding hands in the back. Great JOB!

  3. Your collage was great, I loved how you used your hands to make wings, it's symbolism on it's own (I also loved how you stepped outside the canvas on used the backing, really an in-genius idea). How you even used a black background to hold the imagery, the whole composition was great. Even how you took the photograph generates this illuminating light, even in person the imagery did so. Nice work.
