Description
A data visualisation I made to arise awareness about the wrecks that are sleeping on our seashore.
Done with a mix of papercut and monotype. It is 40*60 cm so it has the size of a poster.
Translation :
WRECKS AND POLLUTION
1/4 of the wrecks are on the North Atlantic
15 x more petroleum in the wrecks than in the greatest oil spill
3/4 has sunk during the Second World War
7 mm of erosion in 70 years
12 meters of sand and gravel to bury a boat
Commission Open !, My Website , My Facebook , My Youtube
May you have a nice day !

Hello there!
It's been a couple of times that I have seen your artwork in the weekly commenting project now but finally came to leave some feedback on your artwork in the name of ProjectComment
I don't specialize on traditional pieces, let alone paper, but I don't have to be an expert to say that your work is very effectively well done! I like your style to present these two people and the bird. Among the people I like the big one with the dungarees the most. I imagine it to be incredibly hard to work with only two colours but you managed to get the body pose, structure and details like the pointy noses, eyebrows and slight facial expressions and even pulled of perspective on those pants, incredible!
Aside from your figures, the roughness of your poster is what caught me the most. Not only does its nasty and filthy look fit the topic, it also gives your poster a more dimensional look if that makes sense.
Your use of black solid shapes making space for your white pencil work in the upper right corner and highlighting every number in big red is a very nice stylistic choice to hook the viewer and of course you keep things clear by portraying the shipwrecks which it is all about.
I only think the parts of text: "3/4 has sunk during the Second World War" and "7 mm of erosion in 70 years" are hard to read and could have needed some light background or lighter colour for the font.
All in all, this really could be something I expect to see in a Greenpeace news article or at a similar environmental-convention, which should reflect my high praise for your work.
And I can say; it did its job well. I wasn't aware of the pollution the shipwrecks in our oceans still cause. I only knew about the undetonated artillery shells they had to dig up with all caution.
Now I am curious what you did do with your project. Did you hand it to a press, did you print it and sell it or did you find any other use?
I hope can you bring it to more people since I think it is a very strong message you get across with this poster. And I also hope you found my feedback helpful.

Hi, first thank you for your feedback ^^
For this project even if I feel praised by your critic I'm aware of a number of defaut that certainly would prevent it from being used in a more professional way: one is like you have highlighted, some text that are harde to read.
Sadly I didn't find time, money nor opportunity to print and sell it, but I keep it warm for when the occasion present itself.
May you have a nice day ^^

To be precise 3/4 of the sunken ship are from WWII, so it's been a while since we stopped sinking them at an alarming pace. However they are still in the ocean ready to release fuel and other nasty thing they were transporting so just stopping the destruction is not a good idea either ><

I wonder why Jotaro decided to make it big in oceanography instead of world-saving. Maybe a). To get a “real job”, for Jolyne’s sake, b). Because he killed a vampire who was imprisoned at the bottom of the sea by his dying great-great grandfather Jonathan, or c). Dolphins. Maybe even d). He’s passionate about the planet, or e). A combination of the above.

Or F) Jotaro is a fish compared to the true best jojo ... (A friend is pointing a gun at me to say Josuke but I will still answer) Joseph ! Learning as his grandfather has beaten an ultimate being, he decided to join his scaled friend in the middle of the ocean to forget about the shame of only have beaten up Dio
