NMA-Post Modernism

Photographer: Dean McNicoll
Used this image as I couldnt find my own. - google search.

The garden of Australian dreams at the National museum is said to be post modernism architecture  as there are many designs in the one places with many contributers.  The objects that stood out the most for me where the red and white navigation poles, first thinking abiout them they look like candy poles. The poles really stood out  size and amount of them all over the garden, real meaning behind them is survey's and explores used the poles to design, explore and navigate australia

Photoshop - movie poster


ok so my movie poster for photoshop class. let me know what yall think?

Bauhaus

For Bauhaus inspired design I chose the simple water bottle as im drinking out of one right now.  The bottle is a simple design even tho making one isn't an easy process nor a inviro friendly one, but in saying that the bottle is designed to carry water. A device for carrying a substance for everyday use. simple and effective.

Primitivism

Title: Le bonheur de vivre (The Joy of Life) 1905-06
Oil on Canvas - approx 175x241cm
Henri Matisse
The art peice created by Henri Matisse Joy of life, the elements of the piece suggest Primitivism 
with its in touch with nature feel. The simple image suggests unsophisticated or child like.
the raw colours and the nakedness add to the primitivism design ascetic.
personally im not a fan of this era as the art just feels blan and plain.
