RebelWerk’s Visual Artwork compositions will often reflect a unique combination of design elements, perspectives, and goals . Here is sampling of some of these elements, perspectives and goals.
- Engage the hearts, minds, and emotions of audiences in positive and inspiring ways
- Are aesthetically appealing and viscerally impactful
- Reflect specific and understandable challenges or crises facing the community
- Reflect the impact that/those challenges or crises are having on the community & its members
- Communicate the “setting”; place, time, season, period, and atmosphere
- Reflect the interactions between people and/or groups: Humanitarian (s) exhibiting behaviors of kindness, compassion, and/or generosity towards others in an authentic attempt to support others in a time of humanitarian challenge, struggle, or crisis.
- Reflect acts of kindness, compassion, and/or generosity…..whether small or large…. that audiences members are capable of demonstrating themselves.
- Contain few, if any, words to clarify the composition’s story, message or call to action.
- Evoke positive conscious and/or subconscious memories of shared global,/national/ regional/ community values, hopes, wishes, aspirations, histories, appreciated cultural differences, etc. in the audiences and inspires them to find ways to recreate and/or relive those feelings in themselves in collaboration with others (e.g., contemporary Norman Rockwell-like compositions that tap into audiences shared universal values around goodness and the power of humanitarian works to create and ideal world for all).
- Speak to the community and its members by reflecting an understanding, sensitivity, and appreciation of the unique history, culture, beliefs, challenges/needs, hopes, and aspirations of the community as a whole.
- Use Iconic Global, National, Regional, or Local historical and/or currently popular figures and/or images to help evoke strong emotional and contextual storyline connections.
- Tell a “visual story” that inspires and encourages audiences to take tangible steps (small or large) to use their own brand of kindness, compassion, and/or generosity to make a positive difference to others in the community; a difference that helps others feel more fully appreciated, understood, and welcomed by the community to which they belong.
- Take advantage of compositional imagery that has the proven capacity to elicit strong emotional responses, e.g. :
- Portraits
- Babies and young children
- Animals
- Inspirational events/situations/Iconic figures
- Nostalgic events/situations
- Situations and expressions of happiness
