COP Proposal -
For this project, I would like to explore:
- The future of illustration - the digital media, modern communication, finding new platforms and spaces for illustrations in this day and age
- Words vs. images, the return to pictures for communication, the causes and reasons and how they spread across the world
Investigation:
- In terms of the practical direction, perhaps explore conversations through images? How images express feelings more than words do? Analyze personal use of emojis or stickers?
- Look into semiotics, communication/visual language and how it is used
Next steps:
- Formulate a research question, focus on a more defined area: the history and culture of visual language (the case study being stickers)? Semiotics, explore more of its meaning?
- Start with the practical side of the project. Perhaps create my own set of stickers? Explore ways of communicating through visuals only?
- More research. Maybe contact professionals in this field? Or do my own field research, experiments, actually testing out whether we could express more with images aside from solely relying on words.
