DESIGN NAME: Autumn Glitter
PRIMARY FUNCTION: Festival Graphic Design
INSPIRATION: In an effort to promote local humanities and gender equality, the festival organizers have dedicated a special focus to exploring and expanding on the role of women in classic literary works. In doing so, the team has successfully connected the feminine perspective in these texts to the natural beauty of the local pond. This has resulted in an extended discussion on the intricate relationship between humans, nature, and self.
UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: This is a visual design project for the 2021 Taoyuan Art and Technology Art Festival. In previous years, the festival focused on technology art exhibitions. Still, this year's theme is autumn light, pond water, and dance, which features a crossover of technology and performing arts. The team used a color scheme inspired by contemporary Taiwanese aesthetics and combined it with coded pixel fonts to present the theme of the event, which is poetry in the technology exhibition.
OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION: This event highlights the mesmerizing and enchanting elements of the fall season's light, the serene pond water, and the graceful art of dance. The team has taken inspiration from these three themes and used them to craft an absolutely breathtaking design that prominently displays radiant patterns of the sun and water droplets. The designer has gone a step further by incorporating brilliantly vivid pink lighting, which adds to the overall dynamic and captivating effect of the display.
PROJECT DURATION AND LOCATION: The project was completed in Taipei in 2022.
