RUINS PROJECT
Ruins explores our world, post unexplained catastrophe where our once familiar streets and stomping grounds have been reclaimed by new life. It shows common and uncommon wildlife, interacting in the surroundings they find themselves in. Hyenas, a prevalent predator in this environment, find their way into every corner of this world. Those who have survived turned to new-old ways of survival. Survivors hunt, fish, and forage for food and materials. Their knowledge is compiled in a book shared through the community, a journal called their “Field Guide to them New World.” I chose to depict survivors of the unknown catastrophe returning to traditional ways of life that existed pre-industrialization: hunting, fishing, and foraging, as well as living in groups with shared resources and knowledge.
This project shows the resilience of our world, and the creatures that inhabit it. Life, including human life finds a way.
This project also shows ways in which the environment has been altered by the events preceding. The images above show our familiar world in ruin, but a world we still manage to navigate and thrive in.
Another concept I wanted to explore was animals adapting to new environments and the traits that would make them thrive or decline. As in the image with the Bactrian camels, their ability to survive extreme temperatures both high and low, and their non-fussy diets, they would have an easy time adapting to new and challenging environments.
This project is heavily influenced by the intrigue of abandoned places, and how nature reclaims our structures once we are done with them. Like old barns collapsing and being completely engulfed in vines and shrubs, the thought that something that was once ours is being taken back by nature by its own will, inspired me to create a set of illustrations showing the bounty of life that would lie upon our ruin.
Disguise Design
Clothing worn in Markets or public outings to be less recognizable
Clothing connotates working groups and farmers and would not be seen worn by anyone of higher status, creating an effective disguise. Markets teem with shady dealing and illegal trading, making them the perfect crime epicenter.
Uniform Design
igh Ranking officer in future militant ruled society. Individuals held high status and revere, and expected to maintain clean, sleek fashion and wardrobe, which is mirrored by citizens.
