LECTURE
Realism : Takes subject matters of the ordinary and common world which we call “reality.” It almost always takes a non-exotic and non-extraordinary subject matter and theme. There is no need to think outside of the box, as that is not “real.”

Surrealism : A twist on realism. It explores the subconscious mind, with subject matters concentrating on dream-images and often aims to distort the ordinary and what we call reality.

TASK
For this task, we were asked to make a surrealism poster using our own photography. Before starting, we were asked to make a biography and statement for this project. Here are the slides that I wrote. 
Fig 1.1.1 Biography (26/11/2025)

Fig 1.1.2 Work Explanation (26/11/2025)

Then, I looked up some references that can help me for this task. Here are some of the references from pinterest. 

Fig 1.1.3 References (26/11/2025)

After finding the references, I decided to sketch the idea on my tablet first and show it to Mr Fauzi. Here are the sketches and explanations.
Fig 1.1.4 Sketches (26/11/2025)

 After consulting, Mr Fauzi chose the 1st concept, so I will stick to the food concept. My idea is to make a food based poster where the background is going to be food, I will put a plate behind my photo with the text "EAT IT UP!" going around the plate. Then I will put a photo of my hand holding chopsticks on the side holding noodles/spaghetti. 

REFLECTION
For this week, I got to design some posters that are still somewhat related to me and my hobbies. I wrote some explanations to help understand the concept more. I also got to dive deeper into the world of surrealism art / posters which I have been interested in for so long. Having to create my own surrealism poster is pretty exciting for me and creating the posters based on what I enjoy doing.

The photos that I took are myself, spaghetti, noodles, my hand holding chopsticks, and a plate. I took all of the photos myself using my phone and my desk light to help with some of the lighting. Here are the photos.  Fig 1.1.1 Pasta  Fig 1.1.2 Plate Fig 1.1.3 Noodles Fig 1.1.4 Hand Fig 1.1.5 Me The photos took multiple takes because a lot of them were too dark and I'm not satisfied by it.
