Thinking ahead.

I keep finding images I like that don't necessarily link to the Fine Art rotation's theme of Epic Tour. So I've had a sneaky peek at the project for Visual Communication . I found this Singaporean designer's work on www.designfolio.com and thought it might be good to look at for the titles 'You don’t see that every day' or 'People do odd things'. The one below is quite humourous.

 

HOWEVER. 

This installation piece by the same designer reminded me of the Summer Project: 'Where I'm Coming From'.

Especially if you read this extract from the site:  

Having spent eight years away from her home studying, she became obsessed with the notion of returning home. She explains her inspiration behind the project as, 'I'm particularly intrigued by the origin of the world nostalgia which comes from two Greek roots, nostos 'returning home' and algos 'pain'... the idea of my work is to recreate this great wave of emotion. Symbolic of travel, each paper plane carries this universal desire to leave or return home.'

 

This installation is called 'I fly like paper get high like planes' - the title of one of M.I.A.'s songs.
