Working to a minute scale





Our task involved working to a minute scale measuring only 0.5cm squared. We were asked to cut as many rectangles as we required and draw on them using different media's anything that we wanted. This could be a secret message, pictures of animals or a specific topic of interest that you have. I decided to choose signs and symbols. In total i produced 20 images which were then photocopied onto A3 paper as shown in the first picture. Afterwards we had to pick one of these images and magnify them on the photocopier so that every minute detail could be seen, illustrated in figure 2. To conclude, we had to draw the enlarged image including all tiny dots and specks that were picked up through the process of photocopying. The media I used to complete this was oil pastels, represented in the final picture.
