Lady Crooked Face: A Contemporary Allegory in Vector Design

Red Line Series by Patrycja Krawczyk

Inspired by medieval engravings and allegorical thinking, Lady Crooked Face is a captivating vector drawing that merges old-fashioned symbolism with modern tools. Designed by Patrycja Krawczyk, this artwork encourages contemplation and offers a unique perspective on the artist's work.

Lady Crooked Face is the first vector drawing from the Red Line series, showcasing the synthesis of emotions and constant perception. Drawing inspiration from medieval art, Krawczyk aims to create a contemporary allegory using modern graphic design techniques. The artwork invites viewers to explore its meaning from a left perspective, revealing the depth and intention behind Krawczyk's art.

With a size of 297 mm x 42 mm, Lady Crooked Face can be used as the main motif in various publishing and digital materials. Its versatility extends to industrial design, tattoos, and as a standalone piece of art in homes. The vector graphic design allows users to customize the format according to their requirements, without compromising the quality of the work.

The creation of Lady Crooked Face involved an extensive research process, with Krawczyk delving into medieval iconography to refine her drawing and artistic skills. Starting with hand drawings, she then explored the possibilities of vector graphics and GIFs, expanding her repertoire and pushing the boundaries of her work.

Despite the challenges faced during the project, including the integration of medieval inspirations with contemporary art, Krawczyk successfully maintained a high level of creativity and technical expertise. The result is a visually striking artwork that stands out in the realm of graphic design.

Lady Crooked Face has garnered recognition for its exceptional design. In 2018, it was awarded the Bronze A' Design Award in the Graphics, Illustration, and Visual Communication Design category. This prestigious accolade celebrates designs that demonstrate resourcefulness, technical skill, and contributions to improving the quality of life through art, science, design, and technology.
