SB2 Carnival Imagery

Previous Carnival Image

Leeds Carnival Image

This image is a recent image from the carnival showing the colours of the costumes, it also shows how the park is set up when the carnival is on. Images like these could be used in the print, or could be used for colours to use within the poster; similar to the way that colours have been taken from some of the past photos. There are examples of this technique on their current online presence.

Historic Leeds Carnival

Early Leeds Carnival

Arthur France Creator

These images above are of the carnival in their early days and it proves the love and need for the carnival in the community of Leeds. This is something that I want to make evident within the designs, to show the strong historical links to the carnival and the need to continue it, which has made it into a tradition. These photos show the love for the celebration, as well as the person who created it; this could be used in the print to give a direct link to its origins and its history. These images could be recoloured into a variation of bright colours bring the tradition and modern concept of the carnival together in a piece.

Uni of Leeds

 This is an image from Uni of Leeds, this is the university with Arthur France attended when he began the carnival. This is the very beginning of the basis for the carnival to give him the feeling of home, and also bring back a sense of home for the others in the west-Indian community of Leeds. I am considering using my own images of university of Leeds within my work to represent the start of the carnival.
