I created this project using black paper, white paper, and an Exact-o knife. This figure-ground project is my interpretation of the crossroads legend that surrounds Robert Jonson. The first stage of the project was to create 20 different figure-ground pieces that relate to my topic of the crossroads legend. Then I combined the pieces to convey a story using visuals of crossroads, a ‘hell-hound’, a heart chained to the music, the gates of hell, and a man waiting to accept his fate at the crossroads.
