Association

November- Got an assignement on association. We were given a different theme per group, mine was 'Human Body' (Other theme's were 'Founa and Flora', 'Transport', 'Household', 'Sports and Games'.). 
I was glad with the subject I was given, because the skin is also the boundary of my subject. 'Fauna and Flora' seems to me without an end, but still it was difficult.

It was up to us to pick something from our theme, in my case I could have chosen, for example, for a nose and associate it with something else, like a vacuum cleaner.

For this assignment  I worked for the first time with Photoshop, which was not very easy (I thank all makers of those great You-Tube tutorials on Photoshop!).

Buttocks as pillows

Lips as stamps

Eyebrows as umbrellas

Some practical information about the assignement:
The photographs of the girl, the stamps on the back and the bird pillow I used from the Internet.
The format had to be 190mm x 280mm. We had to make three associations in the same direction (horizontal or vertical) and there had to be a visual overlapment in design.
