Theme: Found Objects
Context:
Life on earth begins with plants. Discover that much of life's quality and meaning is expressed through plants with a sensory experience demonstrating the richness of plant contributions to human culture. Plants play a crucial role in the development of human cultures throughout the world, and are an important part of therapy, music, ceremony, language and many other enrichments to our everyday lives.(https://www.usbg.gov/plants-culture-sensory-experience)
For this project I want to explore the ornamentation function of plants, and what will happen when the actual objects meets digital technology.

Method:
I will walk around the school and collect the fallen leaves, branches or something else that I can use. Arrange and combine them properly on the paper and import to Photoshop try to make some adjustment.
Response:
It didn't take lots of time on the arrangement of objects. What I got is, I was trying to make a beautiful texture / picture at first, which is too deliberately to get an organic design. But later on, I found that following the rules of nature might be a good way to make the design look more comfortable. After I imported the photos into photoshop, I adjusted them with shadows, colors, lights, etc. At last, I selected some of them to upload. (origiral photos ↓ )
