Master Of Animation, Games & Interactivity

Context:

When the body passes through space again, it becomes two-dimensional, and when it passes through again, it returns to three-dimensional space. Presented in the form of decorative painting. In the same way, I want to express the relationship between the shadow and the body. When our body is projected on the wall, the shadow also becomes a part of our body. So our body is expanded.  Part of my design was influenced by Monument Valley. I wanted to show the relationship between the three elements of body, shadow and space. Space is a converter that can convert a 3d body into a 2d form. This topic has some difficulties for me and I don't have a good idea. The alienation or repetition of the body has been raised and given feedback by many people. I thought about the direct relationship between the body and the shadow. Can the shadow be considered part of the body? I have seen some legends about the body that can be hurt by penetrating shadows, which also gave me some inspiration.

Method:

procreate. Create the initial layer to determine the space, and then add elements

Reflection:

This theme really makes me struggle, body, limbs, something I use every day. The use of illustrations shows a sense of flatness, but it still feels a little worse. What is interesting, I have been thinking. I saw shadow dance, the art of performing with body and light. I also considered the changes brought about by the transition of space for this shape. Where the space folds, the shadow also folds together. If you regard him as a portal, what would it be like to communicate the boundary between the shadow world and the real world?  So I tried this, it would be more interesting if there is an actual model performance. The body, which is in the dark, interacts with the shadow projected on the wall.
