| DESIGN NAME: Anubis The Judge PRIMARY FUNCTION: Illustration INSPIRATION: I was inspired by Egyptian History, motivated by the mysterious mythology behind their civilisation, especially the Anubis Character that had no bargains when it comes to death and the Underworld, the design had to reflect the seriousness and boldness of Anubis...my research took weeks going through all of their drawings and hieroglyphics, symbols and beliefs until the idea was ready to execute. UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: This design is titled 'Anubis, The Judge'. The design encompasses a set of well thought geometrical elements to complement the the subject of this design considering the divine charisma and unmatched power of this Egyptian god. The degree of seriousness behind the character is reflected in the dense design elements represented in the chocker visible around the neck area. The presence of the scale, is to symbolize the final judgement towards the after-life and the 'beetle' is added to highlight and facilitate the infamous intercession process reintroduced into the design to reflect back on the power of acceptance. OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION: This design could be a standalone printed as an artwork, Or it could be transformed into a 3d form and used as a character still or animated, it can be physically sculptured and used as an art-decor element using metallic materials hand made or factory production, the object is a very flexible design and can be operated in many ways. PROJECT DURATION AND LOCATION: The project started in Aug 2017 and finished in Jul 2018 FITS BEST INTO CATEGORY: Graphics, Illustration and Visual Communication Design |
PRODUCTION / REALIZATION TECHNOLOGY: The initial sketch was done free hand aimed to create a homogenous flow of all the thoughts gathered pertaining the subject of my piece. Revisiting the visual concecept was essential in order to create a high degree of consistency to establishing perfection within every corner of the drawing, considering the density of Anubis’s structure. I have also adopted traditional methods of depicting shapes and carefully applied it within the relevant scope of my drawing. Following the sketch development stage, came the digital aspects of applying the technical skills utilized through illustrator and Photoshop. SPECIFICATIONS / TECHNICAL PROPERTIES: W68 cm x H95 cm, 300 dpi, RGB Colors TAGS: Anubis, Illustration, Geometry, Egyptian, History, Hieroglyphic, RESEARCH ABSTRACT: i went through multiple methods for my research, such as art books of ancient civilizations, calligraphy art, internet, and video documentaries. i also got lots of valuable information about the Ancient Egyptian Art from my Egyptian friends and colleagues. Which allows me to dive into the idea even deeper, to come up with an original style . CHALLENGE: My challenge was to understand the mythical and methods of the ancient calligraphies and arts, and how they tried to communicate. the only obstacle i faced, was the quality and details of the informations i received.
