A5- Grid Art


For my grid art, I used a 30 x 30 grid and attached beads in order to make a sailor's boat. This piece was inspired by Tampa's very own, Gasparilla, as I tried to use the most colorful beads to make a blend of the sky and water surrounding the ship.

Blog Post B4- Stage Door

        Growing up 15 minutes away from the city, I was fortunate enough to get the chance to see many broadway plays. With each so uniquely amazing and captive, it is hard to say a favorite. On Angel de Quinta's Stage Door Blog, he gives really detailed and effective descriptions of some plays. After going through all of the years and reading about them, I thought that, Mary Poppins Returns- The Place Where Lost Things Go, stood out the most to me.         Having the ability to watch these Disney classics as I was growing up makes me stay bonded to the concept of having the return of another work of art.

It teaches you that so

A7- Performance Art

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0fXkinBSMGA After being shown many performances by Marina Abramović, I was very moved. Her work speaks wonders, doing even the simplest of things. I like that she's mostly allowing other people to do things in her work, seeing what human kind's potential lives up to be. Some other artists that inspired my work are Yoko Ono in her investigating identities and Chris Burden. Burden was bold and always too risks, something that I hoped to do in my performance. Flesh will be my communication in my video, as the words written on my body will speak louder than I could ever do. People don't always see how someone feels from the outside, it takes a message as big as writing it with markers for people to get the point and see what's really going on. I think this was a healthy exercise for people to think about the feelings we get from technology. Unfortunately, not many people came by on campus since it was a quieter Sunday here.
