Detailed Description

Images are an important source of our lives. From morning till night we see thousands of images on our smart phone; on television; on computer screen; magazines ; news paper and road side hoardings. Images keep coming at us many mediums and have become an very important source of our knowledge, entertainment and information. As a designer I creating images in many forms like illustration, photography, logosymbols and posters etc. This project has been an attempt to understand the process of image making, more critically. My previous approaches in image creation have been intuitive. While such an an approach continues to be important. In this project I have tried to understand the sources and the content and the formal aspects of visual language more carefully. As I explored different ideas many images comes to my mind before. A concrete image appears as a final thing. One important myth that I questioned during this project was my belief that image should always be pretty. There are many things around us that are not always pretty. I understood that sometimes images that depict our environment as its can be like mirror that reflect our world accurately. So in my project “Exploration In Image Making” I will create images of things that are often unnoticed by people.
