Description
AKIRA 03 is an extension of my identity. It is the application of design thinking that questions the integrity of digital sourced assets. With a mindset driven by raw material experimentation, I look to initiate an authentic visual experience that feels charismatically human. Inlying AKIRA 03 is an awareness of design context. I am reconditioning the era of physical media within the digital landscape that currently saturates the industry. To visualize this ethos, I have experimented with material collage and photo manipulation to create a series of compositions that carry the essence of 'old school design’. All design assets have been handcrafted by AKIRA 03.
