This is another image of sun and moon. This time, the design is made in order to follow the given brief as strictly as possible. I will try to explain the image as detailed as possible, but first, let's take a look at it:


On the left side, the sun is presented on a white background, while the moon on opposite side can be seen without difficulty with a dark color around it.

The sun's rays are made using illustrator, with the shapes of many arrows. All of them are organized around the sun, giving unity to the design. Though saying that, a single arrow is in different shape and point on top with a 45o degree. With enough concentration, you will be able to recognize that the only that arrow is in black, which is the same color with the sun, all other arrows are in gray. My goal is to emphasize the connection between that arrow and the sun, and with ease, everyone can realize that is the male symbol. Taking about sun, we always mention strength, heat, greatness, which are all famous tributes make up a man. Thus giving the sun a male symbol here is an effective method to express the importance of the sun to this world.

The sun's black arrows is not just for the male's symbol. Giving that arrow a special importance, it can attract viewers' eyes to its direction as well. The arrow can help lead your eyes to the moon on the other side, and thanks to it, the connection between 2 images - sun and moon- become tighter and closer. In other word, that arrow is like a bridge lead you from the sun to the moon.

With eclipse form, the moon is in pure white. I gave some lines below the moon, with some special meaning behind it. First, i want to present a famous image, "bleeding moon". It's like when you see a moon between a valley, and see its light pour between the space between those mountains. This scene can only be seen with a best position and in a cloudy night. It's just like seeing an eye overflowing with tears, or ones can have another concept in their mind : "a bleeding moon". The second meaning i want to deliver to you can only be seen with a text "moon" cutting through those lines. All of those elements become one, and that is a female symbol. That's right, if we often talk about the sun as a strong and reliable man, many tales in China, Egypt and Greek consider the moon as a Goddess. Having a female symbol here not only help the moon more complete, but also balance the structure of the design itself.

Hope you enjoy the design.
