Light and Composition

As part of our lecture on light, we were asked to look at some pieces of art and analyse the light sources and how it affects the rest of the piece. I chose these two pieces, bu Kekai Kotaki and Daniel Kamarudin
Bird Dome by Kekai Kotaki

Pallys by Daniel Kamarudin

As part of our composition lecture, we were also asked to do a similar task as before: choosing some artwork and showing what kinds of composition techniques they used, such as golden spiral, rule of thirds, etc.

Armory by Tomas Honz

In Honz's piece, the slope of the staircase clearly shows how the golden spiral was used, however there is also some elements of the "L", the scene being framed by the pillar and the dark stairs.

Ariadne by Julie Dillon

In Ariadne, the piece has a more clearly defined spiral, where the eye is guided towards the woman by her red string.
