Impossible Project Ideas

For the impossible project i was thinking of people doing things such as hobbies, work, or getting ready, but with multiple arms showing the stages of each process. This idea came from the problem of having no time. If i had that many arms i could do so much more in my day! Another idea I have is doing a series of the animals of prey being eating by animals that are usually preyed on such as a worm that ingested a bird ect. I find the first idea stronger and it is the first i am going to experiment with.

Heaven: My idea of heaven is openness and adventure. Discovering new things and going different places. Being around many different types of people and those that are close to me. No judgement, grudges or hurt between anyone. Birds seem to to represent openness and adventure to me. Also bright and vibrant colors would be used. 

Hell: Hell in my opinion, is being completely isolated, no sound, no smell, no color, no life. Being naked and dirty. Having a cage around you. Feeling clausterphobic, no air, loose my mind to the point where hallucinations are the only thing you see. Images of a figure in a cell like structure, show isolation to me. Images in black and white to mute color with translucent images of hallucinations taunting the figure.

Heaven and Hell Research

Positive Images

The first image creates an emotional response by playing on the cliche idea that men want large penises and the overused photo of foot prints in the sand. Because of this the viewer has a humorous reaction and it tells them that you will have a large penis if you buy these condoms. In the second image the product is shown as a discovery and the models are full of excitement. The color scheme gives it a paradise feel and along with the boat a sense of adventure. The third image uses the idea of patriotism since it is for the olympics as a positive idea. The people in the swimmers country are holding him up and he is representing them. The idea of everyone working together goes along with idea that the olympics brings countries together. All of these ideas show how these artists created a positive emotional response.

Negative Images

The first image uses the idea that if you do not buy this lawn equipment your yard will attack you. This makes viewers have a response that is humorous but also the thought of their lawn overgrowing. The second image is also humorous but in using Hitler as the model gives the Gap store a negative connotation since he is wearing their product. The last image uses the repetition of graves to show how many have died of cigarettes giving it a negative feel.
