  Reference:  2001: A Space Odyssey   Material: Procreate, iPad Process: Using 2001: A Space Odyssey as reference, I created this piece by first drawing out the background with monotone colors to distinguish the foreground and background, then add on colors in order to emphasize the fire. And I used RGB curve to adjust the color. Idea: I want to reflect a sense of dissonance through primitive ape man's skillful use if tools and fire, emphasizing the advance of technology. I used the canvas size to the 2.35:1 movie ratio to show that this is a fictional story, and the subsequent works will also adopt this ratio as if they were from the same movie.

How can an astronaut be a spectator of this chaotic history from another chaotic parallel world?  Space suits have always had a unique charm for me. They are the symbolization of both the future and darkness. They are the exact embodiment of science and technology on human bodies. They are the infants with uncut umbilical cords born into this boundless universe. They look clumsy and heavy, with a lot of messy fabric folds, yet also have so much precise mechanical structure. Oddly enough, I can see so much solemnness, mystery and uncanniness on space suits, which is why I think they are the perfect choice as a vehicle to guide people through this story. Process: I started with narrowing down my topic, then laid out the mind map. The two inspiration artists I picked were ERR03 and Water_Star, both are art students who had just graduated from
