Deconstruction of Q Double Page Spread


The image has been spread across the two pages and is bled off of the page, which is a link to the water flying off of the page. The well known singer featured in the image is kicking up the water but looking elsewhere, and so is not engaging with the audience. This gives the impression that he is arrogant, but at the same time he looks as though he is having fun. He has a thoughtful expression on his face and is not smiling, which connotes that his mind is elsewhere. His white shirt is even more exposed in this picture than it was on the main image of the front cover, which connotes that he is discovering more about his true self, personality, abilities, and the answer to the question that has been raised by the article. The small logo, page numbers and writers and photographers names have all been moved from the dead space in the bottom left hand corner, and have been scattered across the first page, as though the musician has kicked these up along with the droplets of water. The double page spread keeps to the same colour scheme of blue, black and white. This use of colour, as the picture, links the pages as well.
