The philosophy of self-development is a key factor in the development of personality and professional qualities through accumulated experience. In this understanding, professional activities are not separated from everyday activities, the key qualities of a person as a personality are reflected in any direction of activity, which form the fundamental values as a kind of foundation.

- Design Challenge
- Ronin is an immersion in the author's inner world, introspection, the perception of personality in the coordinates of world values. A kind of mental self-portrait. The process of internal knowledge is complex and even painful, in which it is necessary to look at the personality from the outside, through the prism of the features of the character, how these features affect the result of professional activity.
- Research
- The study was based on several parameters, such as motivational factors, personal factors, and qualitative indicators of professional performance. The combination of these factors determined the framework for the formation of an image that would be able to combine a set of personal and professional qualities.
The criteria identified were: responsibility, dedication, involvement, selflessness, creativity, respect for personal and other people's time. Based on these criteria the metaphor "deeper roots - stronger branches" was formed, which succinctly reflects the mechanics of perception of the world around us. - Inspiration
- Deeper Roots Stronger Branches - author's slogan, life credo, which reflects the approach to the creative path as a whole. The realization of any task requires immersion in a previously unknown field of activity and a deeper immersion in the subject creates more opportunities for development.
- Project Duration
- The project began in 2014, the illustration created was implemented in a limited-edition print format in collaboration with Screen Print Studio. The whole realization process took about a month of work, every detail was important, from the choice of paper to the final print quality. The realization of the prints took place at the Crystal Cluster in Moscow.
- Operation Flow
- The image of the character was inspired by samurai culture, in particular the samurai outlaw ronin. The character is formidable and even intimidating, in the animated version it emerges from a dark background, starting with the eyes, this is for a reason, because the mask always serves as a screen to hide the emotions of the person behind it.
The armor, mask, and helmet, in addition to their protective functions, serve as a deterrent and speak of belonging to a certain clan or caste. This is why the samurai ronin wore black armor without any identifying marks, which only emphasized their lack of affiliation with any master. - Patents
