The other side

"The Other Side" 

This piece was completed in my Graphic Symbolism class to express a cliche. I chose the cliche "The grass is greener on the other side." The style of this piece I was going for is to look as a collage. First my concept was to have dead grass on one side of the composition and on the other side have the lush green grass. But after talking it over with my Art Director, I had a different view of my concept. My Art Director appreciated my concept, he just wanted to see it in a more complex way. Instead of half and half on a page being very obvious we discussed to have the whole page be the green grass to show the viewers "The Other Side." My project has a very clean and refreshing feel to it and I hope my viewers feel and see the same idea. There is always room for improvement, with that being said, I believe this piece could have higher resolution photos and a more improved style of placing the photos, to then create a relaxing unified composition.
