AGIDEAS

Trends and Designers



The trends I've discovered during my 3 days at AGIDEAS are challenging hardships ahead and workout strategies and ideas to develop an effective solution to the problem. They all had hardships, trials and tribulations in their careers to get them at where they are at the moment.

Though trials and tribulations you'll discover your weaknesses and strongest points and to work on them but you don't cast away your confidence and need of endurance to achieve it. There are two quotes I made up which relates to visual art but this idea behind this quote can also work with other careers as well. It encourages me to endure and build on what I was given and develop it. I also learnt to continue and develop my creative world and communicate with the real world.

"Never give up on something you want to achieve. There will be trials and tribulation though out the journey of the goal you desire to achieve, and it doesn't mean giving up. It means to overcome trials and tribulation to become stronger and wiser in the decisions you choose and proceed in design, visual art or in life."- Mena Zarif


"Every visual artists starts as an amateur. Though experimenting with media and though trials & errors, the artist finds their own type of techniques & strategies towards their own style of art and the artist push themselves to achieve better results. The outcomes are incredible."- Mena Zarif

The examples of designers who talked about trials, tribulations, hardship, preparation etc are Ross Didier from Australia, Poras Chaudhary from India and Shaun Tan from Australia.

What I like about his works that he creates a family of his country, Taiwan. He seeks and seeks to find Taiwan in everything and everywhere he goes. He seeks in rocks, buildings, trees, leaves and in nature too. He also experiments with Taiwan illustration using design elements and principals and match them together. This is a great way to find and keep inspirations and build our own creative minds, hearts and worlds. 


He is a great inspirational to me because he helped and gives me direction where I can develop my creative mind, heart and world. He encourages me to seek myself to see what I like and dislike and develop artistic works and designs too. He also encourages me to get out of my comfort zone and take risks in my creative appoach, design and art too.
