These are the final designs I created in response to the negative impacts of technology upon mindfulness. I am quite pleased with these, as I feel that I have fulfilled my intent for the work, of creating illustrations that evoke a feeling of being absorbed within technology, and it seeming busy, noisy, jarring and overwhelming... I think that the sombre black figures encircled within this world of patterns and shapes creates this idea of being isolated and disconnected from the outside world. I think that repetitive nature and shapes within the patterns effectively echo a sense of technology, and the high contrast, garish colour schemes aid the images in being appropriately overwhelming, and perhaps slightly uncomfortable to look at...? I think that generally creating these on illustrator, instead of them being handmade also further reinforces what I am trying to communicate through these images.
