Inspiration

Description of my BA – Project 2013

The inspiration for this project was found in the art and working methods of Andy Warhol. The way he elevates everyday objects that tells about the culture and time in which he lived in and turned it into art, inspired me to choose a typical everyday item that tells something characteristic for 2013. I chose the “Plastic card”. The cards we pay with, our proof of identification or the cards that makes us a member of a certain club. I felt that plastic cards are very characteristic for modern culture.

The following part of the project was about experimenting with “the card” both in relation to the silhouette, printing and decoration.
