Homage-Rodchenko

Alexander Rodchenko was a Russian artist, sculptor, photographer and graphic designer. He was one of the founders of constructivism and Russian design. For me I really wanted to do a homage image of Rodchenko’s because I really love some of his work. He always uses a lot of symmetry and line in his work and often his images are taken from an unusual perspective.

With its tall shapes and symmetry I really love this image. The use of lines really draws the eye up and through the image. In my homage I want to incorporate this drawing of the eye. 

My Homage Picture

Above is my homage image, I decided to unlike Rodchenko shoot in colour, I felt this added a more modern spin. I wanted to get the really symmetrical lines and the sense you are being drawn into the image and I feel I have achieved that. Overall I am happy with this image.
