The anatomy of layers

The first outcome of my MA project was very experimental and



involved the development of images and the triangle shape. My topic



was "the anatomy of layers" where I was researching to the area of



anatomy such as the human body and typography. To visualise layers



was the best technique screen printing as the separate colour layers



will be "see-through" and give a nice effect on the composition.

Visualizing these aspects brought me to 2 final solutions you see hear:

​

Anatomy visualize from the beginning of my research:


The human body and it's layers:


• Skin


• Muscular


• Bones

- Text in combination with image & symbols (in this case triangles) -



The text: Life • Death - Love • Hate, etc. is standing for the theory of the



"Paradox"as my research/typology about skulls was showing one



schema in relation to the skull -  it alway come in combination with



something beautiful (for example a rose).



Additionally to these posters is a:

The paradox

This experiment shows visualizing only animal anatomy / skulls in

​​

various colour combinations and layering not in manual screen printing

​

​

but in digital printing with a laser-printer. The 3D effect on the 4th

​​

images was working every well and one of the advances was to

​​

position the layers more precise.

​​​

A fascinating side effect where images what all of a sudden appear out

​​

of the combination if 3,4 or 5 images together.
