Abstraction Exercises

Addiction, Inspiration

Continuing, 3D Form

Loneliness, 2D Drawing

In this project, we explored the words Loneliness, Continuing, and Addiction.

For our design, we chose to depict these concepts by creating a TV. Using these three words, we made the antennas of the TV by using a continuous spiral. When you look inside of the TV, you get "drawn in" (aka addicted), noticing all of the words on the circles. This addiction leads to isolation, resulting in loneliness. To combat the loneliness one turns to the TV for comfort and the cycle continues.
