For this image, I took a literal approach at representing the original photograph. I wanted to experiment with Kandinsky's idea of temperature and color of lines. Kandinsky suggests that the vertical lines are warm and white, whereas the horizontal lines are cold and black. In the original photograph, I have a rather well-lit, light-shaded foreground for the object and a darker background. I also tried to emphasize the main focus of the photograph by using thicker lines and repetition of the straight lines at equal intervals, which serves the purpose of "quantitative reinforcement." (Kandinsky, 95). The lines in the background are more sparse and lack uniformity; I wanted to use this to counterbalance the heaviness and uniformness of the center of the image. Finally, I used dots to represent the shadow because I felt like the shadow was important to the composition in the photograph despite it being often ignored. While dots by themselves are silent, they create an amplified sound when combined. Overall, I am not entirely convinced that the contrast in color between the foreground and the background is shown, but a distinction is made. I think this composition has a similar calmness and balance to the original photograph.
