thoughtlines:
1.Artist can be a part of global conversations that are about important and relivant topics and issues by expressing there political opinions in an artistic way that will impact the way people think or feel in a way that can be in ways more peaceful.
4.they push the limits of there media and reconcider what can be concidered art by expressing themselfs in there own matter and creating with a free and open mind that makes them able to see any thing in a more creating way.
understanding goals:
1.site-specific art is art that is built into one place that is specifc to tthat place and was set there for a reason. installation art is like 3-d pices that are installed into spaces to change the aspects of that area. conceptual art is art that streeses the meaning the art is trying to portray.
2.what we do/say/make as an artist can and most deffinatly will directly relate to our responsiblity as acitizens of the world by the fact that we as artists have the skill to express areselfs in different mediums and know how to make the message of whats important get out to people and be understood.
3.in class we planned and created site- specific art. we planned to have them on the campus to have them on desplay and to show what a shanty town is like.
4.anyone can use recycled materials to create aesthetically pleaseing artwork that doubles as a functioning shelter you need to find reusable recycled materials that you can figure out how to set them up in a way that can be interesting to others, like with my groups shelter i painted a part of it pink and it really cought my attention everytime i drove by.
5.what it means to have a shelter is to have a place of your own for personal space to live and pretect yourself in. to not have a shelter is lke being without pretection from the elements and the rest of the world. its not having any of your own personal space or place to live and servive.
6.a lot of people live pretty decently in the world but the other half lives in hard proverty and may be unsafe from the elements around them and not have suficent shelters for there own space.
7.the impact of the contects of my surrounding,life, and enviroment impact my work as an artist in a way to were im alowed the freedom to express myself in anyway i see fit. i dont feel forced to express my political views or pressure that i have to cencore myself for fear of what people might think. i just have thew freedom to flow
