Museum adventures part 2 - fine art 🖼️

[anna-neko]

so there's this meme about Very Known Art, how u know... it's been in the public conscience so long we all just kinda been ... jaded? desensitized? to it (the second half of the meme is: wow, its so small?)

and it is a thing that

Has Been Parodied

and in some form Replicated

Everyone has made a variant remix

and I do mean Everyone (no seriously, museum has One Piece on the wall. This isn't a goof; its a full part of the exhibit)

absolutely everyone (Uniqlo x Pokemon few years ago)

no seriously, everyone! (this by @missypena)

...... but then you see the actual real thing. And yeah its small... No goof, a piece of printer paper small ... but also.... ✧˖°. magical ˖°.✧

ヽ( ︶ω︶)ゞ The colors are very lovely in person, and there's these tiny lil crinkly details..... (థฺ౪థ)

yeah yeah yeah, am participating in the meme - in a way - by taking a badly aimed cellphone snap myself

The Great Wave Off Kanagawa (1831) 🎨 Katsushika Hokusai 🏛️ The Metropolitan Museum of Art 📍 New York City, United States

The breathtaking composition of this woodblock print, said to have inspired Debussy’s La Mer (The Sea) and Rilke’s Der Berg (The Mountain), ensures its reputation as an icon of world art. Hokusai cleverly played with perspective to make Japan’s grandest mountain appear as a small triangular mound within the hollow of the cresting wave. The artist became famous for his landscapes created using a palette of indigo and imported Prussian blue.

First Film Roll

I brought my Yashica Elctro 35 GS with me during my recent trip to Japan. It was my first time to use a film camera and... the result was quite disappointing. The camera was not disappointing, my shots were. Haha. Most of them were either overexposed or out of focus... But I loved the experience of using a film camera. It was life-changing. I just need more practice. I need to bring my film camera with me more often.
