FEMINIST LECTURE PROJECT






I decided to go with the role of age, history and time. My main focus was wrinkles. When you think of an old person, the first thing that comes to your mind are wrinkles. Even though every person in the world has wrinkles, we still associate them with the elderly. I chose to put my photographs in black and white because the whole concept of black and white started a long time ago. The first cameras ever made produced black and white photographs only. So I feel that the color of the photo goes with the theme as well.

MFAH WORK






1. Video still from John Wood and Paul Harrison. A bunch of white screens with black circles on each one.
2. Outdoor sculpture in Cullen Sculpture Garden. A giant black ball in the garden.
3. A frican Art. Moba, Ghana or Togo, Iron, Early 20th century. They both are small and dark brown. They have a rough texture and looks like it doesn't weight that much.
4. Ancient Roman Art. Greek, Cinerary, 5th century B.C., Green and light brown. It's big, looks rough and heavy, also very old.
5. Indian Sculpture. Anthropomorph, C. 1500 B.C., copper. It looks like it doesn't weigh that much. Its dark brown and the same size as a new born puppy.
6. Work by Carlos Cruz- Diez. Physichromic II3-B, 1963 (reconstructed 1976) Silk screened aluminum modules with stainless steel filters and aluminum stripe frame. It has 3 colors and it looks heavy. Looks like a box with HUGE sharp blades inside.

Q&A

a. The work by Carlos Cruz- Diez was most enjoyable. His whole design with the different colors and circles was well thought out.
b. Some of the roman statues were disturbing/funny to me. They would build this huge naked soldier and give him this tiny penis! Priceless.
c. I wouldn't mind making one of those 3D pictures that the artist did at the museum. It was very creative and everyone enjoyed it.

FINAL MARK MAKING PROJECT




Overall I think I did a great job on my project. The object I chose to work on went with the theme of the story and the way I decided to make my marks expressed my emotions in the story. Everything went hand in hand to me. I was trying to express anger in my work by being disobedient. That's why I used fire because the number one thing they tell you in elementary is DON'T PLAY WITH FIRE! Great use of negative space on some pictures. I would probably change the size and make it bigger and maybe the way I posted it on the wall. The other students felt the same way. Burn the cover a little more or keep it clean.

FINAL MAPPING PROJECT, GRADE IT!




For my mapping project i decided to take all the negative things said to me in high school and post it up in a very unique way. The negative comments range from, my family, my looks, sex, photography and many more. The main 1 that I wanted to focus on were the ones about my photography. Thats why I decided to put them in bold and do the whole project on photography negatives, especially since the name of the object and the theme go hand in hand.
