In this composition, I wanted to contrast the man-made object with its background in a more obvious way than I did with the points and lines composition. Using shapes, I colored in all of the man-made object, signifying its smooth and artificial texture. On the other hand, the background sofas are represented by dots. While each dot has a relatively quiet sound, the random combination of many dots of different sizes gives off noise and imperfectness, similar to the rough texture of the sofas. The horizontality of the dots keeps the composition cold. The randomness also creates more space above and below the dots, giving the composition room to expand. I find this composition really interesting in that the shapes themselves are almost silenced by the dots in the background. The shapes, and consequently the main subject, became the resting point for the eyes. I think there are more things that I can do to make the subject more stand out and the background less intruding, such as making the dots expand from a center horizontal line rather than appear randomly.
