Dinner and a movie--Final

 

Movie inspiration: Blade Runner (1982)

This piece was made to represent the somberness and danger of the setting. Most of the pictures are black and white as well as the newspaper below the bowl and the bottle, this is to portray the emptiness and bleakness in the protagonist's life and career. The bright red cross marks and question marks on the photos in the lower upper right and left sides of the bowl depict the mystery and danger that lurks in the slums of the setting. The tipped bowl of noodles is to give the viewer the sense of chaos and instability of the many characters in the story. Each of the food-related items points to the photo of the woman, subtly showing that the story leads up to her. The left side of the piece, with the picture of the woman, is illuminated in white to show the happiness she brings to the story, and the main protagonist, while the right side of the piece is bathed in a deep neon purple to draw in the viewer and to also represent the exotic and futuristic elements that the story provides.
