PostModernism Project

My PostModernism piece is definitely something else. The color scheme is analogous or one can argue that it is complementary because of the limited use of color. I chose to use the colors from my original photoshopped image in the center. By adding the red and black paint and the black ink it really makes everything from the center image pop and stand out. I really wanted to focus on creating a fearful, dark, and horror kind of vibe. This piece is constantly making the viewer's eyes move across the image. The focal point of this piece would have to be the center image. It can be argued that their are leading lines created by the arms and the lines of black ink guiding the observer to the center. Also, the position of the red handprint contributes to this as well. The value of the piece is generally dark and the contrast of the white bristol pad helps the red thumbprints seem more visible. Even though the piece has many different elements to it and is not exactly symmetrical, there ...

Joyce Yu-Jean Lee Artist Talk

Today Joyce Yu-Jean Lee came to talk to us about her artwork. She currently teaches at the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York City. She most recent project and exhibit is about internet censorship and it's a project that viewers can interact with virtually. But, she was not always an artist.

This is how she first got involved with the arts as an "apprentice". She neve...

PostModernism

I really enjoyed this article because PostModernism is the world we live in right now. After reading the article it definitely gave me a true understanding for what PostModernism is, because if you're someone living in it, you might not be fully aware that history is being made right now and what exactly that history is. The article says that "in the PostModernism age, it is difficult to get through the day without confronting many different realities". I found this to be completely true because now in today's society everyone's culture and society are mixed together and intertwined that not one society "dominates" over the other. The definition for PostModernism that the author gives us is "mixing of identities, realities, cultures, races, gender roles, technologies, economies, cyberspaces, mediascapes" and the example he uses is if someone were to turn on the TV, they could hear an Irish band playing a song that has a mix of Indian raga, heav...
