Making Room Dividers By Fusion!
Today as I was digging my works from the day since I started college I realized that we have done some pretty interesting art & design projects. The one that I am sharing today is a concept of a room divider/lamp by using combination of artworks (without completely transforming the artwork) from Art Nouveau and Kishangarh (one of the cities in Rajasthan) style of painting which was known for it's facial expression, use of certain motifs such as the lotus, etc.
I picked "Dance" by Alphonse Mucha as my main form and after it's completion, I was able to get the photoshoot done with the help of a friend, and the effect was really interesting for a beginner level! (Pictures of the process are below)
This is the famous painting known as "Bani Thani" a.k.a Indian Mona Lisa by the artist Nihal Chand.
Dance by Alphonse Mucha. I am not a fan of anything flowery so this one was quite a challenge.
Tracing out the form, placing & combination of motifs. I also tried applying the Kishangarh style of jewellery along with the translucent effect used in "dupattas" & motif to this artwork.
Next was the addition of the colors. I had to make sure that the colors used for painting wouldn't be too loud for the light coming through the paper.
The inner portion is completely covered with LED lights along with a battery of course. Due to lack of time I couldn't play around with the form of the divider but maybe someday I will just do it on my own :)
There are still some errors in this model but if it were to be made again I'd know exactly where and how to do this. It was, for sure a great learning experience with lots of lessons. Let me know what you think?
Keep Creating
Lots of Love <3
This is really an awesome partition idea.
Thank you very much :)
Nice motive, good idea and great "behind the scene" story. The light is everything in photography and I see You manage to control it. Good job! Following as I am seraching for creative people like You :).
Thank you so much :) I took the help of a friend for achieving this though!
you have quality pictures and i am in love with it. More so, Picture speaks a lot especially when they are colorful and catchy to the eyes.
I am glad that you enjoyed them :)
Holy shit thats a brilliant idea! Talking about adding the painting added on a thin layer and then water glued it on a thick layer. Niceeee
hehe yeah!
The lighting is so subtle and I love the theme! The three part drawing works well but in my opinion, there could still be some work done on the first and last panels. I see now that there is black tape for the dividers. It looks great in the photo but i would try to play with other material as well. I'm fascinated by cork and think it could be a great material to experiment with!
Anyhow, love the whole idea.
Yeah, there are some leaves which are not quite visible. Yeah I think it would have looked good too. This was in the first prototyping stage and couldn't really add finishing to it.
I have never experimented with cork actually. Mmm, would be interesting for sure :) Thanks for the feedback!
Really cool pictures. I'm interested in photography as well, but I'm just an amateur. May I ask you what kind of softbox do you use, I mean the company?
As I mentioned above, I took the help of a friend for this shoot and it wasn't mine :) I could ask and let you know?
Great piece! I love the idea of having it as a lamp. It reminded me of a project I did back in college as well. I turned a grocery cart into a lamp with a handmade paper lamp shade:
I am suddenly imagining people shopping by using these at midnight! :D
This is pretty nice actually :)
Lol, love it! It would be less intrusive than all those fluorescence we shop under now. Fun thought tho!
Too creative mind whether its arts or photography or thinking!!! Great one!!
