Tectonic Face


When I was sitting at my desk mid Saturday the sun was beginning to set behind me. My laptop sat in front of me on my desk. I looked up and in the dark screen I saw my face in a half silhouette. I've seen it many times before, but this time the light and angle was perfect to where my face was seemingly divided in half. I dropped what I was doing and sketched it out for fun. Later on I decided I could modify it to work with my current studio design concept of "Tectonic" and turn it into a logo for the "So You Think You Can Draw" contest.

We had a class vote for the logo contest, and guess what?..
I won!

The Sky Tower


Tectonic Composition


A point of impact breaks plates. The plates shift and where they shift and break light is created. The idea of light and weightlessness coming from such a dark, compact dense place is what I play my concept on. My kitchen space contains fragmented elements, these elements in their seeming shift make the space seem automated, progressive, and dramatic as if it is changing and going somewhere.
