This was a fantastic assignment involving collage and abstract interpretation. I did a picture on the the pressure of advertising on the brain. Using Rembrandt's The Mill as an influence I used darker colors on the outer edges of the piece and lighter colors towards the center, drawing the eye from outside to inside. The zombie-esque people on the bottom represent the plethora of advertisements assaulting us while the purple shieldbearer prtecting the brain is the human consciousness that is the last stand between the brain and the horde. The overall eye shape between the dark and light facets also signifies the eye as the means for advertisers to assault the brain. I had a blast doing this assignment.
