Eidyn: Tales of Hope and Struggle

Synopsis

My project is a fantasy world-building project about mages, creatures and the working class, for which I'm creating a visual style and design language. I am utilising my existing knowledge of style and design which I have developed through my time in university. To enhance my work and explore themes central to my world building I have researched topics such as the style of Ian McQue, design choices of Pokémon, the architecture of Edinburgh, and the themes of class disparity explored in Pete Seeger's music. I'm exploring how I can make this project fun and expressive by exaggerating shape language and design choices.
