Visual Development: 60's Inspiration

Research by Rebecca Warburton
The story of 'Colourless' is currently intended to be portrayed with an emphasis on colour. The form of the piece accentuates the protagonist's differences/ isolation by being white, compared to the rest of the world which is in full colour. Inspiration could be taken from the 60's decade which was full of colour and textures. Pop Art was a popular genre of art during the time; it often portrayed people abstractly with portraits of icons repeated side by side in different colours.

 The card reads: "In his 'kinetic constructions' Armstrong uses a mixture of coloured screen prints and curved Perspex to give a sense of movement as you walk past the image.
Timothy Armstrong studied at Nottingham College of Art and design, where his work was strongly influenced by his teacher Bridget Riley.
