In my Narrative Digital Collage, the main theme I'm emphasizing is travel. It's something I love to do. The background is a painting I found online of the Tuscan countryside in Italy. I could envision myself visiting Tuscany and enjoying the scenery. I added three monuments I would love to visit in the future- the Elizabeth Tower (known as Big Ben) in London, the Leaning Tower of Pisa in Italy, and the Eiffel Tower in Paris. On the top right corner, I added sky lanterns, which I've learned is very popular in Asia. These lanterns specifically were used for the Festival of Lanterns in Thailand. I've seen images online of the scene taken in wide shot, and it's something on my list of ' things I want to see.' I added a cutout of a girl, representing me. I also added a table to hold a passport, camera, and journal. Traveling internationally requires a passport, and I like documenting moments on my trips by taking pictures and jotting things down. I've added suitcases which is another essential for traveling, and an iPad which I recently discovered is useful to log onto the internet, listen to music, and to watch videos at the airport. Lastly, I added a collage of pictures I found online, of traveling, to tie the narrative collage together.
For the images in the back of the collage, I made them into a diminishing size so they would appear further, while the images towards the front bigger so they would appear closer. I overlapped the layers of the items on the table. I adjusted the sizes of the lanterns so they could appear to naturally float away in the collage. I placed the images of the photographs and iPad so the collage could be visually balanced. I prefer things that are simple and of course, aesthetically pleasing.
