Project Hidden Proposal
The Cold War
After mind mapping potential routes for exploration for this project, I have decided to base my theme around the cold war. The cold war era (1945-1991) was a time full of secrets, spies and hidden conflicts between east (USSR) and the west (USA). I can see a lot of potential paths to explore in this project that could fit into the hidden project brief, the secrecy of spies and the hidden identity and life they had, the hidden gadgets that they had, the secret weapons that each side were developing, the Berlin wall that divided the two sides and the hidden non direct conflicts that each side manipulated.
My specialist path will be centred around graphics design/ illustration, so I will focus on looking at the design principals related to these areas. I will be working towards understanding these areas better by looking at other artists and identifying there processes, techniques, styles and the messages they are trying to put across.
The reason I have chosen graphics and illustration is because I feel it leaves me more opportunity to explore more variety of techniques and styles both digital and traditional or even a mix of both. Concept art in the form of digital painting is a keen interest of mine and an area I wish to research into, but I don’t want to limit my options, I want to leave the opportunity to experiment with different traditional mediums such as ink, paints and other mediums that may become relevant along this projects journey.
