Digital – 3d graffiti Brisbane City Hall

The main idea behind 'digital was to explore a contrast between old and new.  This is one of the first works where I have actually gone out and sourced material for a design rather than just designing first and fitting the graffiti into a scene.

With this one I wanted to get a sense of the work wrapping around the tower and extending into the city as if it is completely taking over the space.  What I like about this is that you will probably never see graffiti this prominent in a space, ever. As graffiti just isn't seen in the same light as public art or any art for that matter.

 

The possibilities for this design are endless, I could have gone right into the lettering and crafted all the ornate sculptural elements from the building which would have given it a completely different feel.  And maybe made it less prominent and blend it into the building itself.

I would love to travel around Australia and do a series based on iconic landmarks taking design elements from the buildings themselves and using them in my graffiti design work.
