ESCAPE - Asylum - Ainsley

Ainsley

I am thinking of creating an environment that is focused around a mental asylum that explores the idea of how its patients use their imaginations to escape from the real world.

I'm thinking of it being something similar to this scene from True Blood.

I am wanting to use a lot of Zbrush during this project as I don't really feel I use it as much as I should.
More to come soon .

I spent most of yesterday brainstorming ideas and looking up reference. I have started to think that a lot of people might have a hard time understanding my initial idea, so I developed it into something easier to understand whilst staying true to my original thoughts. I still want to use the idea of an inmate using his imagination to escape but this time in a more literal sense.

I have come up with this idea of an inmate painting an exit on one of his walls and escaping the asylum by going through it. Here is some reference that I have gathered so far.

I think this picture most accurately describes the kind of thing I am going to do.
