A SHORT STORY ABOUT MY LOGO

image

I created my first official logo in 2012, when I began envisioning my professional career as an artist.

I started to understand the importance of identity, and while I was working on my clothing brand, which I named "Newstyle," I created a logo for it, inspired by an open hourglass and the mathematical infinity sign.

I chose an hourglass because I understand how important time is in building a history, and the infinity sign because the things I create, I do with the wish that they will continue to live on even when I am no longer here. Time is a true constituent of all masterpieces and defines the life of any artist’s history.

The logo is composed of two triangles that form the hourglass and ascending and descending diagonal lines that represent the evolution caused by time. One side of the upper triangle is open to represent infinity—my hope of creating art that continues to live through centuries and across generations, while keeping the same meaning.

The main colors are blue and red. These colors represent my identity: red symbolizes blood as life, and blue represents the world. Because when I create masterpieces with my feelings and soul in them, I believe I am donating a part of my life (my blood) to the world.
