Research/Readings

Olender, J. (2015). Art and cultural institutions as social extensions of personal self-identity. Avant, 65-68.

i liked this article particularly this sentence " Intentionality is realized when the object is grasped with all its aspects and the viewer makes personal sense of it"

another bit i found interesting was "Our self-identity, which is based on perceptual experiences but immersed in cultural entanglements, relates to artworks that have the same basic phenomenological structure: a physical appearance bearing a multitude of cultural meanings and dependencies."

essentially what i understood from all this was that the statement suggests our self-identity and the way we perceive and interpret artworks are fundamentally similar

they both are shaped by our sensory experiences

This relationship highlights the connection of personal perception and cultural context in art

im not too sure on this but what if i were to experiment with this like further on or next semester

Thor, M. C. (2017, November). The reciprocal city: Performing solidarity—Mediating space through street art and graffiti. International Communication Gazette.

what i found interesting about this article was the debate about the similarity and differences between Graffiti art and Street art

i liked this statement about a potential difference between the two "It is understandable by passers-by and often communicates explicit messages, sometimes with an explicit political character. It informs the viewer of the intended meaning using explicit visual cues, and occasionally with text. "

i like that it kind of gives a distinction between the two. it portrays graffiti art as a sort of club, where you can only appreciate it when you understand what it seen from the tag where as street art gives a more "easy" way of interpreting

"Writing a tag on a wall is a spatial and aesthetic intervention but decoding it as something other than vandalism is equally political." i like this statement, it kind of opens my mind into the graffiti art and street art realm i guess. it kind of shows me that there kind of is a clear distinction between the two but also doesn't i guess ignore or put down graffiti art (tags).

Marcin Rogal (MrArtPride)

he makes these pop art style paintings

i kind of want to make stuff like this maybe

i found him on instagram and thought that his works were pretty good, and visually enticing

i like that he merges these different figures and themes to create a cohesive piece

i think with this artist specifically, i just like his art like what he makes

its like placing things in places that they do not belong i guess, i kind of like that you know like imagine placing a kaws character on the Mona Lisa like the two don't match but it might look good or work even

i think maybe i like it because it has some relation to my personal beliefs or something along those lines( like being out of place) but also i like that he comments on capitalism and like a consumer driven society

Will Blood:

i like that he uses cartoon characters and gives them this human aspect to it(skeleton)

His art is characterized by meticulous attention to detail, streamlined minimalism, and a distinctive approach that combines fantasy with a hint of the grotesque​

its like a aesthetic and charming piece but the skeleton sort of gives it this uneasy feeling

i don't know it kind of reminds me of puppets and their puppet masters

id like to explore this, but do it in a way where its different. maybe i can take aspects from his process and try and develop or adopt them into my own practice

i mean i like the cartoon figures but im not sure if id recreate them in my own practice

im still not sure

Sarah H. Awad, B. W. (2017). Street Art of Resistance. Aalborg University Aalborg, Denmark: Springer International Publishing.

i liked this book chapter about "Art and Social Change: The Role of Creativity and Wonder"

i know its speaks about the activism side more but it mentions street art as one of the "activist art"(like activism form of creative expression) , it says that street art is directly linked to change within society and community

"It is a space where reality becomes multiple and malleable, at least as experienced in art."

this was a sentence from the chapter it i don't know to me it kinda means like it creates this other universe where they morph reality within their art

i know i don't really explore the activism side, unless my works have underlying political themes which i think they don't i would like to explore this morphed universe, well i think i do a bit ?

i don't know it was a good read

definitely open a new avenue i could explore however i am not sure if i would go a more activist route maybe i do already? not too sure on that though
