FELIS

Group Code-127

Abstract:

Felis is a piece of art with which one can humanly interact. Putting together the world of art and interaction, we have come up with the idea of a beautiful lion painting.

The lion is represented in a geometric form with its mane acting like prompts that initiate color changes allowing the user to color the lion the way they desire. The eyes of the lion also change color according to the proximity of the viewer from the installation.

The majestic lion in the form of a light interaction is a visual bliss to one and all. The painting is for those who love art, those who get inspired by the ferocious creature-the lion, to come and enjoy and get mesmerized by its beauty.

Because this installation allows the viewer to interact with some of its elements, it provides the viewer a very varied experience from (say) a traditional painting or sculpture, which is normally seen from a single reference.

This installation art is a pure work of art, and its impact, message, and beauty will remain with the viewer forever.

We plan to continue working on this project to make it more interactive. Our next step will be to include the keys of a piano to all the parts of the mane. We tried to implement this by the demo , but due to some unforeseen mishaps, we had to let go of this idea for the time being.
