About Meet Up Mahi Kōhikohi Whakaahua

Ko Meet Up he mahi toi kōhikohi mamati e whakaatu ana i te noho ngātahi humarie me te taiao. I hangaia te whakatakotoranga i roto i te Photoshop, mā te whakamahi i ngā whakaahua tawhito o te rohe tūmatanui me ngā whakaahua tipu i hokona mai. I whakanohoia he whakaahua kua tapahia ki roto i te āhuatanga, ā, i whakapōkarekarehia ngā tipu i mua kia āhei ai te whakaatu i te hōhonutanga me te whakanui ake i te iho matua o te tirohanga. Ko ngā puawai kei waenganui anake i tāia he tae, hei whakatika i te tauritenga me te rerekētanga o te āhua whānui. Ko te atarangi o tētahi tipu e tohu ana i te wera o te rā, te waiata manu, me te mārire o te rangi i waho.

Behind the Design

Press Kit

Credits, team members and technical details provided by the designer.

Unique Properties: When she makes these things, she puts a lot of emphasis on the harmony between natural air and smell, and most of her work contains plants and fruits. This is especially a work that expresses peaceful coexistence with life. Feeling the chirping of birds, the breath of people, and the soft sunlight.
Dimensions & Packaging: She made a cut out of an original image and placed it into her work. In addition, the plants in front of this artwork were blurred to give the image a sense of perspective and highlight the key visual point. And by coloring only the flowers in the center, the overall balance and contrast of the artwork was adjusted. The shadow of the plant in the image expressed warm sunlight just by its presence.
Tags: collage, vintage, artwork, graphic design, digital collage, bird
Production Technology: She created this artwork in Photoshop using vintage images and images of purchased plants.
Design Challenge: When people initial look at this artwork it is easy to assume that it was simply made. In reality though, while thinking about color balance, geometry and negative space concept, the act of creating a balance between all three techniques requires careful planning organization and vision of the end goal even before the the first crop is made.
Research: For this artwork Kaoruko considered artworks in the public domain which were royalty-free and had collected them over the course of her multi year-long career as an artist. No particular inspiration was taken from other people’s work but on the contrary by observing nature and how it coexists with the human kind, she was able to correlate and assemble appropriate artworks to create this particular collage.
Inspiration: She loves the grandeur, mystery and tenderness of nature, and for some reason she wants to cry when she feels or touches some of them. One day, while she was having a picnic on the grass, there were a few little birds playing peacefully around her. She was inspired by this work when she felt the warmth of the sun, the comfort of the wind, and their lives close to her.
Project Duration: The artwork was created in Tokyo in April 2019. It took about 45 minutes to create.
Operation Flow: Artworks can be appreciated and enjoyed, or added to one of the colors of someone’s life. Kaoruko would be very happy if her work could have such a role for someone.
