Question 1 – Space
How is space used in the composition? (filling the space:concept of Positive/Negative explored. Techniques which may create the illusion of space(which techniques)? How were elements of space used to optimum effect in composition? If space was not effective give reasons.
I think that this piece is very intresting the space used in the compostion gives a very calming effect. To me the castle seems to be the the positive space in this project. It seems to be encapsulated by an ora or some kind of shining shield. The lightness that surrounds it makes it stand out and gives it a magical look. The color of the clouds and flying carpets really add to the appeal of the focus. The ocean water seems to be sparkling and the angles at which each of the flying carpets are one close up and the other farther away really adds depth to this piece. I think the student used space very effectively to potray her point . I really like this project, and think this was one of my favorite pieces.
