I went back to my original artwork of me in my comfort clothes, and decided to see if I could develop this piece further, as I think it looked boring and unfinished.
I decided to zoom into the whole piece, this cause the pixels to really show. I like the pixels showing and I feel it looks more digital, which I feel is appropriate as the majority of anything in general is online. I also decided to add the Queen’s slogan: ‘Sapienta et doctrina stabilitas’, meaning ‘wisdom and knowledge shall be the stability of thy times’. I thought this slogan was quite funny, as the British government hasn’t handled the coronavirus well at all, and hasn’t dealt with it with ‘wisdom and knowledge’, quite far from it. I then added on ‘right?’, in response to how the UK has dealt with the virus. I then made the slogan have a x-ray like look to add to the glitch look.
I much prefer this piece to the original piece. There’s more going on and the composition is better.
