Kristel Mach- Culture
My inspiration for this project is the sea. My culture is known as The People of the Sea. It's a culture of people that live in the Caribbean and are at one with the sea. They inhabit a small island with multiple waterfalls and its surrounded by miles and miles of open ocean. This culture of people can swim like fish and spend most of their days in the water. Their eyes are the bright blues and blue-greens of the sea that they spend their time in. The currency these people use are pendants. These are kept around their necks so they are not lost when swimming, and are a combination of blues and greens like the sea.

I would like to see some images from your research and I look forward to seeing the visual language you come up with for your inspiration.
ReplyDeleteBe careful in making them into pendants- I don't want you to go to a bead store and make something that could be bought today- Make sure the attachment is related to the culture- Keep your ideas abstract and don't let it get to "little mermaidish".
