Topic: Analogue

Title: Rose tree

Description:

After I have received the topic of the ISP-Analogue, I feel a little bit of nervous about it. Since analogue this word is somehow broad in meaning, I feel difficult in thinking ideas of my artwork. Analogue usually descibed in photography. That is the “old school” style of photographs. Nowadays in 21^st century, as the advanced technology is populas in the worldwide, nearly all the electronic devices that we are using are digital. The main reason that we changed from analogue to digital is because the digital signals are way more reliable and are easier in transmission.

I have made a rose tree to present the topic. I have used newspaper to fold 127 roses to form a tree shape. I have used wires to build the structure of the tree, then stick those roses on the wires. After all, I used acyclic colours to paint them in rainbow colour with graduation. You may ask why do I use newspaper to fold them rather than other materials. It is because newspaper has long history that represent the events of worldwide everyday. It has recorded those crucial things among the world. Just like analogue, its pulicity, periodicity, currency and universality are worldwide and common in daily lives. I have used graduation colours to represent the change of analogue to digital era. A tree means growth which all the things will grow and change when the time passed by. Roses usually give people an impression of the positive side and I think analogue gives humans the positive affection in lives.
