Blog 3: Two artists related to my Big Idea

I searched the internet to find two digital artists that will help me develop my big idea. Here, I will talk about their art work and what I like about it.


for the first artist, Ilan Lichtnayer, I found these two artwork that I really like.

 This artist tries to express the big picture of life in simple actions. The birth and death. Our love and all. The big idea in their work is that whether you like or not time never stops and the clock will always keep ticking. in the other work the artist tries to show that love results in attaching yourself to somebody else.
I find the simplicity and the presentation of humans as figures makes this artwork special. The first work inspired me by presenting a key on the bottom right of the image that represents a tool to make use of time and that a human has the choice to use this tool. I may use this work to help me develop a new approach to represent time in my final project. The artist's approach of using small details to represent his ideas can help me in developing the final project by trying to include more smaller details to clarify the big idea in the project.

Here is some work from the second artist, Rich McLean

This artist is very creative and unique. His ideas are very wide but well defined. Both of the artworks posted talk about the same big idea. They involve consumerism and trouble, isolation and prohibition all together. Many aspects inspire me in this artwork. The difference within each piece, the fact that each part complements the others, and the main idea that is presented overall. The second part of the first image really speaks of itself. It shows a person riding the swing on a resistor (part of an electrical circuit). This really shows that we cannot live without electronics and gadgets anymore!
I can use this art in developing other similar ideas that would complement my Big Idea. I can use smaller pieces put together to represent a much stronger idea.
