1)The comparison of my work tells me how much my understanding has improved. For my first piece I drew a blue and purple fish to show the theme water. But as my understanding grew I decided to do something more complex that meant something to me so I decided to draw a house on the ocean. My technical skills have definitely improved throughout this semester. I've experimented with different supplies and learned new techniques to get to where I am now.
2) a. My work is related to the culture we live in because now with all the technology we have available to us people are able to do things that before people would never even think of. I did my work about cat fishing which is pretty much a person who is intentionally deceptive about there identity when creating a social media profile, trying to make a romantic connection. My work critiques elements of modern culture again with technology. We have laptops, iPods, iPads, smartphones and so much more. As long as you have internet you could do pretty much anything you could ever think of which good be either a good or a bad thing.
3) I enjoyed doing the artists currate, observation and artists communicate projects the most. I really liked doing my drawing of Ariel, I think it was my best post of the semester. For the observation project I enjoyed having the freedom to walk around and look for things to take pictures of.Finally I liked doing the artists communicate because I think catfishing is really interesting and I watch the MTV show "Catfish". I don't think I would change anything about this class. I really enjoyed it.
