Shine Your Life
Visual Analysis
Illustration
The artwork "shine your life" was inspired by the artwork "with the moment" by Aeppol, a Korean artist. I was inspired by her ways of creation in glass bottles, with the idea of capturing the moments endlessly. Furthermore, her artwork captures the little joys in our everyday lives and the small special things that we often overlook, and it evokes a sense of attraction, drawing people to read the stories through their images.
The artwork "shine your life" mostly displays a girl holding a bulb container containing a micro-world throughout several backgrounds. The concept of a micro-world in a glass container is inspired by Aeppol's work. Also, Aeppol's artwork brings a smooth, relaxed, memorable, and harmonious sense, which makes me feel empty and calm. So, the use of lines rather than colour for the character who is holding the bulb container is used to prompt the sense of nothingness, empty.
Moreover, the artwork is created by using multiple design principles. The artwork brought attention to the left side of the image, the bulb container with the micro-world, creating a sense of contrast. Obviously, the lines are the only elements to create the backdrop and the backdrop's character . The microworld in the bulb container, on the other hand, is portrayed in a dominant position with the highest contrast and brightest hue, demonstrating the juxtaposition of dissimilar elements. Furthermore, the repetition of the figures with various backdrops is shown in the video animation. To make the creation more interesting, a variety of backdrops, including light, dark, and galaxy, are shown, and more areas are given to the viewers to perceive. Also, the artwork is created by using the principles of movement, showing the variety of light from the backdrops, and it can be easier to spot when the stars and moon shine in the video. Harmony is also used to form the artwork, as the same colour themes are used to create every frame, which shows the design elements are fitted together.
