READ FIRST BEFORE LOOKING AT THE POSTERS.
Hello again,
So I am going to enter a competition that has been running for a year and every month they release a word for people to respond to. This one is Social.
Looking for some feedback on how it looks visually and you guys like the idea.
My response:
The word social means a huge amount of things. But for me it is says relationships you have with people, be it girlfriend, best friend, colleague etc. . .
With some research I started to looking at Philosophers that commented on Social behavior, one of which was a French guy named Jean Paul Sarte.
His philosophy was that to achieve self consciousness you have to prove (display) to the Other (people). So their is no you without other people.
He invisioned this philosophy in a play called No Exit. Where the he explains his theory in a form of a love triangle and how people are connected to the other people around them. How people can make you happy and sad.
Capitulating the whole idea in a famous quote:
L'enfer, c'est les autres, meaning Hell is other people.
So that if people are the hell, so is heaven . . .
In my poster I have used geometry to illustrate the idea. With one triangle turning into another. Developing a relationship the two as it passes though every version of a triangle (every form of relationship).
So going from a right angle, to an obtuse, to an scalene, to an isosceles, to an acute and then finishing on an equilateral.
The colour represent warm and cold relationships. (obviously)
Anyway, sorry about the rant.
Also should it be in english or french??? I will hopefully get this screen printed as some limited versions . . . .
Cheers Vanya, Awaiting your crits.
