Six studies of colour and design in the form of banknotes.
14.5 x 6.8 cm
The six prints, designed in the familiar format of banknotes, evoke varied responses: some viewers see them as symbols of possibility, while others perceive them as representations of impossibility, and still others view them as perceived threats to cultural identity and values. At their core, however, these works are formal studies in colour, line, structure, and design. Intentionally avoiding innovation, each print is crafted to appear entirely plausible at first glance. The project explores how elements of visual language—through shared symbols and aesthetic cues—can provoke multiple, and sometimes conflicting, interpretations based on the viewer’s associative frameworks.
