Take me there
(2/3)
An series of augmented reality illustrations
Take me there is a series of 3 illustrations exploring the power of storytelling through augmented reality. I want to show the blurred human idea of reality, using elements from architecture and nature to create a window to different, surreal and magical worlds.
This idea has been going around in my head for a while, and when I finally started working on it, Covid hit the world and added another angle to my project: In times of lockdowns, it became some kind of escape for me, dreaming away in magical forests and surreal buildings.
In this piece, the theme is introspection. The humans in the piece are somewhat all the same person, in different states of mind, sometimes determined, sometimes hesitant or confused.
Try this AR piece on your phone! Just scan the code below:
The process
The color scheme
I've used a similar color scheme for all pieces of the series. It's mostly natural, muted colors, with a few sparks.

The final 2D illustration

Arranging the layers
(plus a bored cat)
And again... the final piece :)
I decided to take it outside as I really like how it plays with together with the old tiles on the ground. If you try it yourself with the QR code above, send me a screenshot! Would love to see the piece in different places.
Huge thanks to #adobe and their #adoberesidency program for funding my project.
