micro project 4

The way I came up with this idea was from the requirement info that was assigned to this project. As soon we were given the option of making ourselves look like a cartoon character or super hero I jumped straight towards the classic black hole from old bugs bunny cartoons. I had my friend take a picture of me with an empty can of mountain dew flipped over and had it look like I was pouring it out onto the brick walk way at the oval. What I would change in this picture would be that I would get another picture from underneath my knee to make the second black hole look more realistic. I wish I could of gotten a picture with me holding a black hole and my leg vanishing into it making it look as if im walking into the hole. The big reason I chose to do the cartoon idea was because I've got to go with the classics!

I chose the small plaza in front of the Wexner center that has periodically placed trees in the plaza. I chose it because the wexner center is known for art exhibition and I feel like it is a place to go to if you’re trying to come up with ideas for something, or a piece of art. What I did was I painted a recreation of Michelangelo’s "Creation Of Adam" on the plaza, but I edited over Adams face and put Brutus’s head over his head. I tried to make it look like it was a street art. The plaza and was too big to get a good angle to clearly see the picture. I edited it with Brutus to show how I represent my school and kind of to represent how Adam was supposed to be the perfect person and for the sake of my message he still is. What I was trying to do was have a hidden message that, we are the best and we are the first. I also tried to send the message with the piece that I like the work of Michelangelo and how he made the messages in his artwork very prudent but it is still hidden in its own special way. The reason I made it a painting was because I have always enjoyed graffiti and the fact that you can display your personal work and opinion. I also enjoy that it is almost an immortal piece of your work that is placed in the public domain. I also enjoy the feeling of fear and rush generally associated with graffiti. The thought of letting everyone see your work and your thought on a certain object or issue for the public to share their opinion and worrying how long it will still be there before someone paints over it or decides to add their own tag.

Micro project 1

This map is a map of my morning walk to Art Education 252. I start off by waking up usually at 8:15 am (as the red line portrays), shower, eat breakfast, and head on my way to class. That starts by walking from my apartment down 12th avenue, all the way down to High street and I take a right down south High street at the OSU Union building. I keep walking down south High street until I get to the Wexner center where I make a left turn and head straight down west 17th avenue until I see the RPAC on my left and the OSU football stadium straight ahead. While walking to class I usually think about how im now apart of The Ohio State University and how I am finally a Buckeye and that I am finally in college! That's my morning adventure if I wake up on time. If I wake up late like say 9:15 am (as the grey line portrays). There is no shower or breakfast, I run out of myapartment hoping that I have pants on, sprint down 12th avenue. Run across High street, run through the Union building. Continue running then get to the oval where I run across that hoping not to get hit in the head with a frisbee or football. I run around Mirror lake until I see the RPAC or the stadium, and during all this, March Of The Swivel Heads, by The English Beat is playing in my head.

Golf course 1997

The piece of art was a rather large piece that was covered in trash and fake grass. Everything was layered on top of each other as to give it a feel of depth. There was fake grass near the top of the piece and the head of a putter was cut off and placed above that grass to make it look as if some one was playing golf on top of the grass. Beneath the grass was a bunch of garbage and waist. There was also a dinosaur head beneath the grass that looked like it was hiding in the shadows and eating a human finger. The denotation I thought was how high society has grown to cover up all its bad past and anything they don't want people to know about. The connotation I feel is that society has gotten so high and proud of its self that it wants to cover up all its blunders and that they try to keep everything under ground.
