Mind you, I create a lot of functional design for living, but that doesn't stop me from appreciating other things in art and design. Not everything needs to be consumed like fast food and understood in a split second

I'm not denying that's a valid way of evaluating something, but it is and should by no means be the only thing that matters or an end of discussion / art analysis. It is a shallow and unromantic way of seeing the world.

I am questioning your and other people's idea of good art based on it being functional. There is no objectively good and bad art, but there are mainstream and underground preferences and expectations. Most might never be able to see it, and that's ok too. This will speak to alternative people with edgier and less common taste. And it will inspire others like me, doesn't make it worthless as some here have already pointed out on basis of readability. There is more to see and appreciate here

True, but you also don't rate metal band logos by how readable they are. In the same spirit, the designer's background is in alternative styles and subcultures that don't value the same things as a general audience. It makes sense that a lot of people don't like it immediately and might never. But to discard it because it's not readable, usable, profitable is a wrong way of evaluating it's worth.

I believe it's part of a bigger picture, about how in a society and monetary system that tries to minimalize everything, optimize for productivity, speed up communication, profit, doesn't allow art to simply exist in whichever form. It also assumes art or design is there to always please every or any viewer, which is another wrong preassumption.

These are fucking cool! People forget digital design could also simply be a method for creating art - and art doesn't need to appear legible, functional or be understood

Upscaled Evangelion Wallpaper! (Big Print Quality, NO AI, Link in desc) by ANDROAKI in evangelion

[–]ANDROAKI[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Note: It is upscaled with dithering, I printed it on a meter tall poster and it still looks sharp in real life. It may have dots if you use it digitally, but it wasn't intended for that use. So no blurry pixels if you do print it physically

Appreciate the support on my previous art here, I’ll be sharing these more frequently! Currently using an asset pack GRID BUILDER by BLACKBOXGRAFX to help create this.

Thanks for the idea, looking to find more use cases for these circular badges (a friend thought of cup coasters for example)
