Vormator Vector Illustration Design
Directions/Project Objectives
Vormator is the ultimate challenge of your creativity: the aim of project is to give each artist the chance to show his abilities to create a stunning piece with limited means. Each person will get the exact same set of 8 shapes, the Elements. With these shapes you are challenged to create your own unique design, within the limitations provided in the Rulebook. Designers are thus challenged to create a unique piece within a strict set of rules. It all comes down to pure skills and creativity in this project. Besides it being an ultimate test of skills, I also think the Vormator project is something new and fresh. Imagine what can spawn from these simple rules. Who will find the most creative solution? Each artist starts with the same set of forms but will have to end with a different, individual piece. Do you think you’re up for the challenge? THE RULEBOOK What exactly are you allowed to do and what isn’t allowed with the Elements? The following rules have to be followed when creating your artwork:
With these limitations in place each contributor will face the same challenge. Everybody will be judged by his/her true creativity. The most important thing to bear in mind is that you are free to do as you see fit, as long as a viewer of the artwork is able to see that it is composed out of the Elements.
