Artefact 3 - The Idea

For my Third Artefact I shall analyse one other visual element of art and design TONE.Frederick Palmer argues that tone maybe use to;

— Tone maybe used to create pictorial structure with balanced light and dark

— Convey harmony, or disunity

— Indicate dramatic contrast

— Give illusion of solidarity

— Suggest qualities of light

— Evoke a sense of space and distance

— Compose rhythms across a picture or construction and;

— Pattern areas with positive and negative shapes.

My aim will be to discover on whether Palmers suggestions are true. I shall do this using the previous kitchen environment i had created and experiment on the lighting and see the effect it may have on the viewer, and so compare it with pictures that use tone as a visual element of design, of the original kitchen and how it may change ones perception of space. I think i will take three different snaps at three different times of the day, morning, noon and at night, therefore i shall be able to see the different light sources and how the appear to light the room.
