- surrealism, imagination expressed through motifs/characters/themes from Murakami's novels.
- the structure and discipline of Murakami's daily life
I have found creating these thumbnails a more useful and fulfilling exercise than during the editorial brief. I think this is because there are less constraints within the brief in terms of audience, which has given me a greater reign in terms of how I approach and respond to Murakami's work. Something that has also helped me is finding a way of creating these thumbnails that works better for me, which consists of drawing out certain components first and then using the thumbnails as a way to figure out composition.
I like the thumbnails I have produced so far, however I feel I may be needing to do more research and drawing in order to fully grasp the concepts I would like to express - especially concerning the third theme of my project proposal. However, visually I do think that they are heading in the right direction, and will especially effective in either mono-print or lino - as they consist of quite big bold shapes.
