DESCRIPTION
Rippled spaced was chosen as the first image of the piece as it presents the most amount of comprehensible elements when compared to the other nine images. It is the most literal design found within the grid as the audience can clearly identify its scenery. Being the first image found in the collective piece, it was to show a combination of key ideas attained from the two texts, Quinoa and Gooden. Another requirement for image one was to have demonstrated both form and image evoked in the two stimuli.
Much like Lynch's 2006 Qunioa, Rippled space demonstrates a sense of isolation and moodiness created by the dark scenery and the single bright planet found on the canvas. The circular shapes and the number of highlighted stars were to represent Lynch's thoughts that was demonstrated within his instructional video. Black and white were chosen as the two primary colors which occupied majority of the canvas as the video was developed in a monochromatic manner.
Having this image be a mixture of both Gooden and Lynch's text, it was also required to demonstrate elements gathered from Gooden's series of images. Red, yellow and orange were the three chosen colors for the planet to greatly contrast its dark background. This was done to place emphasis on the contrasting ideas found within Lynch's and Gooden's text. These bright colors were to represent warmth in a literal manner. Being a planet which potentially posses life creates this idea of comfort, safe and security as it is home for some.
