A Personal Narrative Poster Series portraying the beginning middle and end respectively in a three part series. This autobiographical story exhibits various consequences of my childhood habit of looking out the window. Little did I know how much I missed and yearned for it until I left home. All narrative studies are intended to consider abstraction, transparency, layering, and juxtaposition.

Shifting In Composition, Typographic treatment, and treatment of color palette mimics the shape of the narrative arc. Abstraction and transparency are employed.

The Search Bar In This Interface inclines the user to actually search through the frame of view, just as I searched as a child through the window. The magnifying glass uses a literal connotation juxtaposed with the elements of the interface, which use a figurative connotation. Structure and information architecture inspired by that of SEGD.

OBJECT STUDY
Through this Object Study in Photographics consisting of nine similar objects, I was able to learn how to art direct my own photography for more efficiency and good professional practice in future endeavors. All photography is autobiographical, by Ratipriya Suresh.
design.ratipriya@gmail.com
Application of Object Study is intended to not only play within the grid of white and black background, but also to apply to other formatted media i.e. retail, as seen in the Cole Haan mock up.

TRANSCENDANCE STREAM 2
diagrammatic/type and image
This stream shall focus on contrasting devout ideal form with human form. Relationship of proportion, expression, technicality, and foundation comparing the human figure (in this case male) with the ideal form or contrast the supreme being with the human being. A juxtaposition of diagrammatic dichotomy with the quintessential, picturesque, utopian forms is employed.
TRANSCENDANCE
SPLENDOR STREAM 3
purely image based
Enjoy the grandeur of the presentation in the process of getting ready for performance. Movement is even captured in the static form. I believe the dance gives movement to the static form. The dancerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s appearance is the medium through which one can absorb this art form.

DEVOTED TO DANCE
An iPad Interface Executing Three Facets of Bharathanatyam (South Indian Classical Dance): etymology, transcendance, and splendor. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a multilayered spectacle which transcends the body, mind and soul, rich in its grounded history and style sensitive foundation/influence, yet subtle in its etymology. Bringing me closer to my South Indian culture, Bharathanatyam helped me define my idea of devotion. Work in Progress. This degree project employs autobiographical text and photography by Ratipriya Suresh.

TECHN I QUE INTERPRETIVE
There are set movement patters strung together like a garland of beads, a codified body language, grammar, technique, and costuming. A combination of pure dance (Nritta), mime (Nritya), and drama (Natya).
