Could this be considered a new hobby?
I had so much fun Xeroxing my body parts. It reminded me of when we used only 35mm film and we had to wait for our pictures to get developed. The anticipation and waiting to see what was printed felt the same way as it did back when we use to develop pictures. Anyway, I wanted to do something that incorporated other elements of the class. I wanted to decontextualize the box, and make it mean something, I also wanted to have the viewers become part of the art. I decided to cut out the letters from a magazine and photocopy them to read, "WHO AM I TODAY?", "YOU DECIDE"...The letters give the Dada approach. So then I photocopied different personalities and persona's, so you can decide who you want to be when looking at the art. It will always be changing and can mix and match how the viewer wants it to be. I hope you enjoyed. It's still in the classroom if you want to go play with it! LOL

I loved your piece! It was such a creative idea to do something so interactive. Way to think about Velcro!! I loved the quote too!
ReplyDeleteI liked the idea of the use of interaction between the viewer, and using a DADA ideal by taking images of pop culture imagery (Lady Gaga who truly is, and making an image out of them) and enabling the viewer to produce their own mood and imagery was great.
ReplyDeleteI really loved your that you were able to make an interactice art piece that is 3D, colorful, and has a cool style. You took your idea out of the box. Great job again.
ReplyDeleteThis was such a great idea and I really like how the viewer can change it up how they want. I also think the velcro was a great idea.
ReplyDeleteI loved your idea of letting the audience interract with your art piece and deciding who you should be today. I also obviously loved the xerox of Lady Gaga...amazing!!!
