Perfection

Lee, Nikki. Perfection. 11 June 2016. iPhone 6+. Pixlr. 480px X 640px.

This piece is called Perfection. It surrounds the quote at the center of the piece that states, "Perfect is not attainable, but if we chase perfection, we catch excellence." In this piece, I felt the quote was great to use because it shows chaos. There is split imagery and the directions are undefined. The eye tends to chase different marks all over the image instead of a steady flow. If the viewer studies the image hard enough, they can see the image of the woman fading and becoming into view at the same time. As the upper face fades, the lower face comes into a clear view. The purple and yellow are complementary colors to each other. As the whole of the image is shrouded with yellows, oranges, and reds, the quote becomes the focus as it is highlighted in purple hues. Even the word "selfie" in bold lettering is blended, almost disappeared, in the background.
