Year: Feb 18th, 2011
Artist: Yeohyun Ahn
Size: 1000 pixel (width) x 250 pixel(height)
Description:
It is my kinetic typography inspired by the scripture in Ecclesiastes 3:1, "To every thing there is a season." I believe that life has seasons. It has spring, summer, fall, winter and then, spring again, as circle. At my age, 37 years old, I suffered from Heart disease. I thought that my life may be in the winter. I designed this typography with my hope that my health condition will get recovered as if the spring comes again every year as circle. My animation begins with winter, spring, summer, fall and winter as loop. Each animation is not the same, but unique and new, based on random positions where branches and leaves grow up as if every season is always new for us.
It was featured through “The Art of Typography,” the Rhizome ArtBase, NYC, NY.
