My Queen & The Midas Touch
Enchanting but uncontrollable power
PROJECT BACKGROUND
“The Midas Touch” is a conjuration and a mind-blower. The magical things are beautiful because they are so fascinating. The most appealing of all is the Greek mythology of Midas Touch, which turned everything into solid gold. It gave me a lot of imagination about what if the magic spreads further and turns objects such as his clothes he wears and the air into gold as well. A woman who did not care about how others’ views and was born with the unique trait accepted what made her special. The collision of coexistence made her look like the queen of the region and turned her into the icon that every woman would yearn for. There was no one who could resist her.
PROJECT CONCEPT
My queen accepted her uniqueness and live for herself. Like the first queen in the history, she broke the rule and traditional concept of male kingship. With the keen ability and extraordinary wisdom, she was elegant, full of confidence, and beautiful. The image itself was made up contrasts, which brought out the sexual appeals and fatal attraction in masculinity and femininity. To express the moment of turning things into solid gold, I used the gradient colours of noble purple and gold in my design. “Gold” is a word and a colour that can catch everyone’s attention. As using gold itself is not enough to show the contract, I added Midas’s favourite flowers to make my design more eye-catching and precious.
