First Semester : Symbol




I liked the concept behind these. We had to make symbols, then apply them to something (like a pillow) and make a tradable (like a token).

We had to pick two cultures, and two relationships. I choose human society and nature as a culture, then picked war and peace from a list of given relationships. We had to make three symbols, using either an eye, heart, or hands, and represent the two polar opposites (war and peace) and a neutral.

This was the "peace". I wanted the hands to be in perfect harmony with nature in a way which makes the hands inseparable from the landscape, thus forcing them to become one.

I think it would be cool to do something nicer with this symbol..
