Graphic Design at UCK

This assignment embodies the cliche idea of “putting yourself in someone else’s shoes”. It forced Derrick to look at life through the eyes of a Japanese woman – the persona he chose to represent the opposite of himself.

After extensive research and development work, Derrick submitted 6 A2 foam boards with professionally printed images showing his new self, a Japanese woman in various stages of life and in different situations. This was followed by an essay of self-evaluation and further notes.

For this assignment, Derrick had to gather and present a range of images that have been either copied or plagiarised. These images have been considered to fit into a distinct personal style developed by the artist.

Derrick submitted a large sample of work David Carson, Andy Warhol, H.R. Giger and Charles Rennie Mackintosh. Along with this, he sent his essay including his personal analysis for each image.

I won’t post the images because there are too many and they are obviously not Derrick’s original designs, but here’s is the table of contents for the essay which accompanied the folder of images.
