Unique Properties
Human beings are closely connected with the ocean. A series of digital art illustrations describe the harmonious symbiotic relationship between human beings and the ocean, which is dialectical. When human beings destroy the ocean, they also destroy their homes. When human beings care for the ocean, they can live together. Digital art illustration, in the form of surreal art, shows that human beings and the ocean are the community of destiny.
Dimensions & Packaging
The size of the illustration is 127x127 cm; 63.5x63.5cm. It is used for print and online media.
Tags
Human, Ocean, Digital art, Illustration, Destruction, Harmony
Production Technology
Digital illustration is finished by computer drawing technology. Using "Sai" software, combining with digital board for image drawing and post art processing, this is a systematic process of art processing, requiring stylized performance, surreal digital painting is very promising.
Design Challenge
The difficulty and challenge of digital art illustration is to deal with montage's artistic effect and painting form vividly. It is not easy to achieve the ultimate in the pursuit of artistry and profundity.
Research
In the context of human damage to the ocean, marine organisms and marine resources have been greatly damaged and polluted. In the long run, human destruction is possible. Digital art illustration reflects this content. In the form of montage, it praises the harmony between human beings and the ocean from the front, criticizes the behavior of human destroying the ocean from the back, and expresses human reflection.
Inspiration
The originality of digital art illustration comes from the destruction of the ocean by human beings, and the concern and protection of the ocean ecology by human beings, with the purpose of sustainable development of the ocean.
Project Duration
The project started from March 2019 and finished in September 2019. The design is done in Shenyang.
Operation Flow
The content of the illustration is that the female characters have affinity with the marine life, surrounded by fish, coral, seaweed, etc., and the garbage left in the ocean by human beings. The information that they convey to people has three points: 1. The harmony between human beings and the ocean; 2. The destruction and pollution of the ocean by human beings; 3. The consequences that human beings should bear. These contents are transmitted to the public, and the artistic concept is deeply rooted in the people's mind.
