Journey to the moon

series of designs on japanese visual culture. Image manipulation, hand cut digital assemblage
 


                                                          



Nagasaki

The world war two brought the most significant change and birthed the most horrifying images as a rhetoric memory throughout the arts , the quebec agreement was the worst.








Hanamachi

The geisha's , those distinctive performing artist's re-assembled within a highly manipulated cultured collage with a mix of hand and digital works








Floating Weeds


 This is a hybrid which combines japanese identities
and has subtle similarities to Ozu's works







Funeral Parade


Combining elements of identity, history and wabi-sabi, this piece stiches a japanese lady, their staple and in text refers to a fisherman raping a girl









Takamitsu



Combines elements of contemporary architecture (aesthetically brutalist) with hints of natural texture and veins in color .







Meiji Era


Combining elements of the monarch , its residing geography with a play on identity and war.









Kinbaku 


Kinbaku, meaning tight binding, is a type of Japanese bondage, appreciated for both its aesthetic and sexual appeal. The technique has its roots in the feudal Edo Era, but was not a sexualized art form until the twentieth century.






Through this process I tried exploring various analog techniques of making designs with manipulating images physically by scans using textures of the natural objects and curating a visual experience through re-imaginging found articles of various figurations. 


Later transferred on cyanotype and dyed dark.
