#and thesis of the film

barbie is not an "anti man" movie at all. it's so obvious to me that the kens were written like idiots not to call all men idiots (well... maybe a little) but instead to show how easy it is for someone to get taken advantage of. it's important to remember that while the barbies and kens are played by and written as adults, they function in the real world and overarching narrative as adolescents that don't know very much about the world.
reading ken as a young boy, he's initially nice to the girls around him (if insecure, lonely, and feeling pretty disrespected) but as soon as he steps into the real world, he sees all these men who feel very secure in their masculinity and self-assured, and he wants that for himself. he falls into the trap of the patriarchy much like a lot of young boys in real life fall into extremist right wing ideologies. but ken's insecurity never really goes away, it just gets covered with faux fur and headbands and country music. it's why he cries and admits to barbie that leading was hard. he never really wanted to hurt the barbies at all, he just wanted to feel confident and accepted by everyone, but especially barbie.
ken was never the problem by himself. he wasn't made into the world hating women. he was manipulated and turned into a misogynist by society.
#i was struggling to put my finger on why i felt so strongly that barbie is not ''man hating'' as a lot of ppl keep saying#and i finally figured it out. hoorah.#theres also the additional nuance of barbieland having a reverse world where men are oppressed and i think that definitely impacts#ken as an individual but ultimately i dont think the implications of a matriarchal society are relevant to the greater themes#and thesis of the film#ramblings#barbie#barbie spoilers

This was part of my undergrad illustration thesis, which was illustrations to accompany the text of Shakespeare's The Tempest, repurposing aesthetics and imagery from the rural New Hampshire village where I grew up.
Reposting this piece from May 2020, because it is now available as a print, and Tumblr is being weird about letting me edit the original post to add alt text and a link.
#my art#pen and ink#shakespeare#the tempest#ferdinand#miranda#ariel#self repost#all of the text was typed up on my typewriter and composited onto the drawing once i scanned it#fun fact! the stipple shading on the log is morse code and i have absolutely no memory of what it says#that was an idea i wanted to try in all of the pieces for this and then abandoned when lockdown started and i simplified my thesis bc of it#and yes hello costuming history followers! ur right that isnt late 16th/early 17th century clothing on ferdinand#it is a turn-of-the-century high school football uniform from an old kimball union academy team photo#styled to look like the very stylized silhouettes u see in 20s/30s silent film adaptations of shakespeare plays

We’ve gotten featured in another film fest - in Westchester New York!
12pm October 19th (next Saturday!) at The Picturehouse in Pelham. And I’ll be doing a qna after.
This is going to be one of the few times you can watch my film before it’s released publicly in 1+ year. So if your in the area! Plus arts fest is a fun event with lots of cool food and galleries around the area. And there’s a lot of other cool films by amazing directors showing in this specific fest
#film fest#thesis film#film festival#this one is run by a high school friend of mine! and it has some films by some past high school classmates of mine#and I’m getting back just in time for it! film fest after film fest for me as of late which has been fun#I’m pretty sure there’s no cover charge for this one tho? and if there is it’s very small#idk if you want something to do Saturday midday! I also hear there is a haunted house in new rochelle at the end of the day#if that’s something your interested in
