The Parts of the Puzzle

Gayle

Tai
Wednesday and Thursday the class worked on a composition project. The objective was to create a series of images using the same elements (line, curvilinear shape, rectilinear shape) and the same palette. Gayle's collages are bold and striking with large, powerful shapes and rich colors. The shapes move freely from foreground to background by overlapping shapes with the same color on different layers. Her compositions consist of sweeping arcs and rolling circles supported by stable vertical and horizontal structures.
Tai has created a very clean and minimalist series of collages. The images appear locked into place as though there were warning signs identifying an unseen hazard. On the other hand, there is also an air of surveillance and "Big Brother" suggested by the electronic roving eye illustrated by the centralized circles throughout the compositions.
