In this assignment, I wished to develop a design that would show the fundamental importance of water. Using the general concept of yinyang or dualities in nature that give rise to one another, I superimposed the images of a fish and a fish’s skeleton on a yinyang symbol in counterbalance with each other, and signifying life and death.
I used the fish images and blue color to show the interaction of water with life and death. The text was used to state simply the importance of water, and arranged in a circular manner around the image. The inks are applied from light to dark values for the most part overprinting the previous ink, although areas of the blue are cutout to allow for trapping, and the inks should be flashed before application of the black to assure its density.
