ozone getting thinner








My design is base on plants and ozone. The things straight you can see it’s a flower which is a water lily. The reason I choose water lily is because water lily is believed as a symbol of enlightenment. While all of the petals represent the different struggles and lives we live on our path to spiritual awakening. The center of the flower represents the state of enlightenment. So the topic here is Global warming. Somehow, the meaning to water lily made me believe it is related to karma or balance of life. Although we know of the consequences, we are using all the technology and things such as perfume, mosquito spray, aircon and more others for us to make our life more comfortable but all these lead us to what we are going through now days which is global warming for the awareness of the consequences was not played well. All these things actually made the ozone thinner and this is the reason why the temperature is increasing lead to melting ice, sea water rising and trees dying. In the design, the middle part represents the ozone.

For the petals, I used gradient yellow and red. Yellow represent the flower itself and calmness. Red and we can see a little orange represent the sun, temperature and mainly red as awareness. The middle part is circles of white and green. The white represent the ozone while the green represent the nature.

So, that’s about it for my assignment 1 on Global Warming symbol. As a conclusion, take note for what you use in your everyday life on how it effects the environment for the love of nature and our future.

final sketch


So anyway, this is the final sketch i was talking bout earlier. Cubics, thats is falling apart. Metaphoricly, make sense to relate the symbol to Global Warming as we know now, the Global warming is breaking apart our world such as trees are dying, ice are melting and water is rising up. I will talk about the meaning into more deatail with the color later. Bye for now.

class excersize


This symbol is suppose to be a box made of cubics. As I was saying earlier, few pieces are falling off from its original place represent the world are falling apart due to global warming. What is important to all beings are dying because of the weather tempreture that is unstable and ozon is getting thinner causes trees to die. Ice is melting and water is rising causes phenomena at the beaches and giving trouble to those in working at sea, a lot of them died because of tsunami. Basically, this symbol represent the world is breaking apart and if we are not taking actions on what is going on, at the end, there will be nothing left for us.

Now lets talk bout the colors. Blue represent the great sky we have, earth we see from satelite is blue too anyway. Brown represent the part of the world that is dying and breaking apart such as trees. Red represent the center of earth. Im not talking about the real center of earth. Metaphoricly, the real center of earth is the gravity, which is very improtant too ofcourse, but in this symbol, the center of the design is us. We made the world beautiful and confortable by invent things and technology, and we somehow in someway, distroy part of the world too such as air polution. So we should atleast try to fix it too.

sketch


I didnt really know what to have for my assignment one which is symbol on the basis of Global Warming topic. At first this is what i had in mind, a dying tree in a circle. The circle represent the world and the tree is one of the important thing we need to be alive. Then i realized on the notes uploaded by the lecturer that we cant have any living things, so i design another symbol just by using simple shapes. Since Im having problem with my internet connection now, the final design will be uploaded as soon as i get the chance to. Bye for now.
