Bridge 1: Artist Statement 2/8/18

My fifth question was “How secure is the system of the turnstile?” I used a vector illustration to demonstrate my thought process. I feel that when I use vector images I have the power to control what I make more so than if I was using the medium of photography. I can create the lines, shapes, colors, and ideas clearly and easily, and illustrator makes it very easy to go back and edit my work once I’m done. When I think of security I think of a lock. I feel a sense of privacy and safety so I used a lock drawing a various colored boxes. This shows security but also the different colors represent the many different types people who pass through the subway each day.

I am 18 years old from Long Island and have been interested in art and design my entire life. I have years of experience with photography and design and I am majoring in Communications Design. I love exploring new media and learning new ways to create and appreciate art. In the past I have completed freelance photography and design work. I have photographed for varying companies and events and have created custom album cover art for up and coming artists. I would love to continue creating and exploring deign.
