CRUSADER - All Manifestations of the Releaser of Souls:)

in #art5 years ago

The Crusader arose as a central figure in a larger piece entitled "The Initiate" that dealt with Hermetic Mysteries and Masonic symbolism. After realizing that the imagery was not making complete sense with this ghostly, mechanized, warrior spirit occupying center stage I chose to lift him and repurpose him as a design unto himself. He has become a bit of a "cult classic" among admirers and has since gone through several iterations to suit several different purposes. Check them all out below:)

PINS!!

ELOH PROJECTS vs. THE ARTISTRY

Below is the flat color vector translation that was used to create the physical pin.

On the 15th of June , The Artistry Collection dropped "Crusader", the first Pin design that Eloh Projects created from the ground up. Collectors came through super strong to make the drop a success and though it wasn't the fastest sell out of all time, it was an impressive show for a first pin. The legendary, Zaccary Ryan came at the design with some sexy color variants and the production team at the Artistry knocked it out of the park. The Artistry did a really exceptional job with these and that LE 20 variant is definitely the most extraordinary of the bunch.

TAPESTRIES and TEES!!

ELOH PROJECTS vs. STEVEN HAMAN vs. THE ARTISTRY

After the successful launch of the Crusader Pin, The Artistry reached out to create some clothing and a tapestry design using the Crusader. I wasn't sure exactly how to make the image any more compelling and approach it uniquely enough for our collective audiences to want to scoop so I reached out to my friend and epic VJ, Steven Haman. Haman has VJ'd a number of Tipper concerts and traveled the US performing with some of the best acts in the psy/electronic music scene. He took the Crusader image and added his melty magic to it, et Voila, we had our winner.

Steven Haman x Eloh Projects

Below is a promo video that Steven Haman created for Tipper using my Royal Elephant image. I include this so you can see how he uses 2d imagery of mine to create really interesting visual experiences (The white environment at the end is another image by my friend Salvia Droid). These were created in After Effects and I do know he uses Resolume Arena as his primary live vehicle. Beyond that I have no idea how he creates his magic.

These guys are really beautiful against the stark white background of the heavy, texture paper. I am deliberately choosing to not show any pictures because they really mislead. The prints are stunning in person.

If you are interested in supporting Eloh Projects, you can scoop one of these Limited Edition prints at https://elohprojects.com - and specifically here >>>https://elohprojects.com/eloh-projects-store/Crusader-c35883022
