Since looking at the alchemy, i have been inspired to consider developing my project into product designs. I decided to look specifically at existing ancient greek artwork and objects. I found they created such beautiful and intricate pieces of jewellery, bowls, vases, with many being inspired by their gods, or legends.
A collection of some truly stunning examples;
- Iv'e found these to be really inspiring. I am beginning to see how my illustrations could be adapted in a variety of ways. - wether that with it being printed onto a surface. - bowl/vase or material. Or actually carving out a 3D design?
- Next - need to luck at methods of production (other than information from my uncle) - methods that i can attempt by hand? - polymer clay for example.
- Comparing this collection to some stunning contemporary jewellery examples. These pieces are all inspired by the ancient greeks, yet with a modern twist. Through research i have found theres still such a market that this jewellery and products will appeal to.
- is this just a 'fashion trend' at the moment? will it last? - if I adapted my illustrations to such products how long would they be desirable/ an audience. These are questions I need to look further into. But it seems that Greek inspired patterns, prints, furniture, and jewellery has been relevant for quite some time.
