a.
At first glance this image appears to be a railroad track that
goes off into the fog and eventually drops out of the scene.
b.
The artist is trying to convey a message of how sometimes life can
be going along smoothly like a railroad track and suddenly drop off and have
great ups and downs. Maybe the artist’s life could have influenced this work.
To me the work seems to evoke calming and peaceful emotions. The work was
created in black and white, and I feel it greatly adds to the mood.
c.
The work is used to create feelings of loneliness and sadness,
while also creating a calming feeling.
d.
The artwork contributes to my community and contemporary society
by creating a surreal environment in which he uses layering and objects to
convey his message.
e.
Well in southeastern Ethiopia there is a small Scandinavian tribe
known as the Klongitians. During their free time this semi aggressive tribe
enjoys making sculptures and paintings of bridges going off into the distance.
However painting is not their only medium, they also enjoy being very talented
basket weavers, they spend most of their days under the Mediterranean sea
weaving these empty baskets. Although in the past 200 years there has been an
extreme shortage of food causing the baskets of the Klongitians to go empty and
their bellies to become… bloated. This hunger is the main cause for their passion
of sculpting bridges, which they can later jump off when their huger becomes
excruciatingly annoying. When aggravated, these people will remain passive, but
when left alone they become aggressive. In recent years some of these tribe
members have migrated to America in search of food, a small tribe of them now
resides in the NCHS art room: Klongitian civilians include, Anthony Elmore,
Isaac Kalinowski, and Tessa McCardell.
f.
This piece uses layering and Photoshop to create a surreal environment,
and I plan on doing the same thing but with a different subject.
