Exquisite Corpse

Sketch




Reflection

Exquisite Corpse inspired by and collaboration with Hanna Borg and Ananya Karanwal

This was by far the most difficult p5.js project for me. While the concept wasn't hard to grasp in itself, making these moving parts all function cohesively and modualrly was hard to execute. I decided to kind of flatten the images I was given into my own interpretation based on my original sketch for the body. I wrote for my piece "This is Gus. He is inspired by the inner child thatwe all have in us. In thinking about rigidity and lines in design I ponder when I (we) lost the notion of judgement free expression. We all struggled with drawing hands at some point, some of us gave up, some of us became skilled artists. Either way, we gave up some of that innocence in creativity by being influenced by “standards” or “aesthetic”. Gus is a reminder to listen to the kid in you."
