3D DESIGN, VISUAL EXPERIMETN
Cinema 4d, Octane, Photoshop, Illustrator
An experimental 3d work into styleframe that depicts the aspects and mixed emotions of my thoughts and feelings about this Pandemic.
Scene 1: Darkness. Lots of sacrifices have happened, so many people have been exposed by covid. And we've been stuck and got limitation to do what we've been doing normally, and when it kept long, that made me to feel depress and heaviness like I was locked in a cage. So I depict a human trapped in place that has a wire fence. There're the syringes with dark-bluish and bloody colored liquids to the human statue, which I wanted to depict the injection of a virus(covid) into a human.
Scene 2: Continued with scene 1, this scene is also showing my negative feelings and aspects about this Pandemic. Countless number of people were sacrifices, sick, and in pain due to the Pandemic. And when the situation that we thought ended continued, I felt like there's a heavy air have been tightening me up.
Scene 3: Coexistence Even though time has passed, the pandemic is not over yet. Using a covid prop as the interior of the room, I wanted to express that we're still living our lives with covid.
Scene 4: Hope 1 People have been started to get hope since the vaccine has released to the world. Even though people got positive, vaccine made less symtoms than not getting it. So I want to metaphor this hope to the 'colored' flowers that're blooms, to depics the vivid, bright emotions.
Scene 5: Hope 2 There's positive aspect continuously happened. During the pandemic, the technology has developed, which make us to connect with other people virtually. It was already existed, but people changed of thinking to use this as one of other methods to resume, as making virtual events, meetings, and even remote work or more. And now, this pandemic is going to the Endemic. Can't say it's over, but mostly, wer're back to our normal lives. So I wanted to express that hope is coming out to the world.
