Ham

Description:
This page clearly shows the development of the arabesque research for "Ham." The initial idea is to associate a character with a large ham. In the early study (bottom right), the ham is carried above the head on a tray. In the middle above, the carrying gesture is refined. At the bottom left, another idea involves having the ham carried more naturally by a waitress. Finally, at the top, Cappiello opts for a more dynamic and aerial version, as seen in the sketch.
