Pattern & Ornament: Small Works - Symbols (Part 1)

Symbols 1 to 12

Symbols 13 to 24

Symbols 25 to 36
 For this first stage of the small works related to pattern and ornament I decided I want to used the signs as a description for important memories or events  that impact my life. It was difficult to keep the cliche away from the picture, so half way in the process I choose to make the symbols more abstract . This last series of symbols rely more on the lines to express emotions.
Symbols 37 to 48

Symbols 49 & 50
Description of symbolism: objects 1 to 9

Description of symbolism: objects 10 to 21

Description of symbolism: objects 22 to 34

Description of symbolism: objects 35 to 45


The majority of the symbols have a description explaining why or how the symbol identify with me.

The first 29 symbols also have an explanation of the relation between the object and the meaning.

At the end I  did second versions of some of the symbols. These second versions try to brake the initial cliche that I feel was affecting the first image.
