Faces Project Brainstorming -1

I started the course MA illustration in Camberwell College Of Arts and on my first day I got my first project 'the faces project'. It was really interesting subject to work on as we have to draw 20 faces on A1 size paper and even one single face on A1 size paper. First of all it was really challenging for me to work on such a big size. I have worked on A1 size but not with the full of paper. For the faces it would be skilled work to compose all the 20 faces.

I always need brief before starting the actual project and develop concept- my ideas, something that I can illustrate as a storytelling. I think without a story it is really hard to start any project for me. First random thoughts came in my mind that are as below:

1. I can show the mindset of different type of people .
2. Split personality- How people differs from their original personality and how they have contrast personality.
3. Some people pretend something or they try to be something else and originally they are something else. For example, some people behave nice when they need help from others. Means they just pretend that they are nice. But originally they have their hidden intentions to be nice to others.
4. Sometimes people are surrounded by people and are busy in doing some work. But their mind thoughts flows from opposite directions. for example. a man is working in the office but he is thinking on the holiday plans.
5. Ravana - Ravana is a character from Indian Mythological story 'Ramayana'. He is a negative character and has 10 faces. So the thought was to draw Ravana with 20 faces.
6. Half face with different expressions or half face of man and half of woman.
7. Faces which illustrates their thoughts through the forms created in their hair.
8. Waves coming from the mind.
9. Conscious mind and unconscious mind.
10. Faces in eyes. As we see everything through eyes. I had a thought to illustrate faces from eyes.

These several thoughts came in my mind. But still my am not sure which thought i should develop further. I think I have to do more research on the faces and stretch my mind for more focused and powerful thoughts.
