Spectacle!




This is for our project about spectacle. These are photographs I've taken made into a fake poster for a lecture series based on the movie Donnie Darko. The Philosophy of Time Travel is a made up book from the movie. The movie is about time travel.

Temporary Tattoo!!!!



Yay temporary tattoos!!!!!!!!

Landscape



Four of us decided to do a "stream of consciousness" for our landscape. We got the idea when we were brainstorming in class when all of us drew off of each others drawings. So, this file started with one person and was passed on to each. It doesn't have a definitive concept, just whatever imagery came to mind based on what was done before. This is what we came up with!

Figured out my blog problems! these are the finals from the first project .... onto the next.....


















This is my infinite print! I guess it started as a unique object and I scanned it in order to make it printable. I wanted to experiment with how 3-D parts of artwork printed still look 3-D.

Then for my unique object, I want to make it back into a 3-D piece in a different way than the original 3-D object.

INFINITE PRINT



The idea for this illustration came from photographs I had taken. My roommates and I made a huge IKEA trip and built all of our furniture in the front yard and I set up all the furniture and my friends. This illustration branches from these photos and is a place I would like to hang out.

So, after not being really happy to my solution to this problem, I decided to try something different but still focusing on the topic of shaving.

So I branched off from this information I found about the manipulation of women into shaving their armpits and legs and took more of an anti-ad approach. Also, I wanted to utilize the screen printing process in a different way than printing onto paper, because I can do that easily through my printer- I wanted to print onto a more interesting material.

So, the rejection of manipulation imposed by advertising.
my new idea:

girls who do not conform to this now societal norm are making a bold statement, so I wanted my project to be bold too- but want to also incorporate some of the information I learned through my research process.
Kind of like in the 60s when some women rejected shaving during the Hippie movement, this is like a 2009 graphic-T version of the same rebellion.
Here is what I came up with.
