Low-Poly


I began exploring the mundane and every day through noticing angles in my lampshade. Light bouncing off the structure creates textures that change depending on your perspective. This led me to a paper study, inspecting the shapes that emerge from a scrunched up piece of plain A4 and how lighting affects a surface and the overall quality of a subject. 



The composition of the shapes produced led me to the “Low poly” technique with its similar joining geometrical combinations, and the perceived shadows creating depth in a digital environment. I experimented with this method on Photoshop to create a series of block colour impossible shapes that can give a false perception of 3D within these flat geometric links.


The further manipulation of these shapes allowed me to create an evolving landscape that appears to unfold.This piece was inspired by Mark Kirkpatrick's (MK Everydays) similar low-poly tranquil digital settings.
