Visual Research II

Closure

matt Meiners- grandson a modern tragedy vol.1

I chose this album cover for closure as the child in the piece doesnt have a torso but yet you still know where his shirt is and where it ends. I chose this image over others from teh same designer as the break in the element was rather large and yet still worked very effectively.

Proximity

Sergi Delgado- The Eye

I feel this piece is a great example of the principle of proximity as the whole image is just made out of teardrop shapes of varying sizes but if looked at from a distance or when squinting looks like an eye. The grouping of the teardrop elements creates a whole new image just by making the illusion that pasrt are darker than others

Size

Concepcion Studios- The Shining, 2018

I chose this piece as my example for size as the small barely noticeable characters make the maze that takes up most of the image feel vast and desolate. 

Texture

David Carson- Ray Gun issue 50. 1997

I feel this piece is a great example of texture as  you look at it and can imagine exactly how it feels if you were to touch it. The charcoal and pastel in the blackground gives a very gritty feel that adds to the scratchy letraset and faces to make a piece where no part is left untextured.

Line

Peter Saville- Unknown Pleasures.1979

I chose this image for my example of the line element as its one of the most recognizable album covers of all time and its made using only  a bunch of lines.
