In response to the crit I decided to start developing some of the vignettes and drawings from my sketchbook on illustrator. One of the ideas was to have the baboons climbing across the roofs and into the windows of peoples houses. As I began to draw it though...I just thought that it looked really boring.
Problems:
- The central part of this project/idea is the animals being a part of the urban environment. In this the baboons are such a small part of the frame, that I feel like they get lost.
- Its not eye-catching as an image for me...I feel like it just looks boring. Maybe this is because its too representational?
I think I need to go back to my sketchbook and start to develop more ideas as to how to represent the idea of animals in urban environments - and the conflict this causes, in less representational and perhaps more metaphorical ways.
