Final project

Life from Destruction is a project that is created through different techniques and features Photoshop CS2 contains. Few images are directly transferred from the actual photographs and others are drawn with Photoshop drawing tools with hands.

This project is meant to emphasize the natural phenomena of every living things that what lives fades away and die at the end but it does not end with just that but leave something behind in this world. Also it is symbolic of the constant movement and dynamic change that is ongoing which is prevalent in every living things. This project unhinges the notion of two contrasts, opposites—creation and destruction—ignite dynamic, active and vital change and the idea of extraction that from previous continuous motion rises from extracting something from something that was pre-existing and creating a new which becomes a cycle. This cycle is happening around us in every day of our lives and we experience it everyday.
