ARTIST STATEMENTAn artist statement is an introductory text that provides a contextual background for your artwork. There is no formula for an artist statement, but it might include information about how the work developed (its source and direction), the underlying idea and structure, the conceptual aspects, your philosophies, and/or possible influences. In some cases, the statement may address the use of particular materials and processes.The artist statement is extremely important because it provides insight into the work by helping to clarify the focus or concept.

An artist statement is what, how, and why you do what you do, from your perspective.

This means that an artist statement is personal, as personal as your art. It is also honest, in the very same way that your art reflects a true expression of your being. Because an artist statement speaks to the relationship between you and your work, it needs to be as authentic as your work. When done well, the statement and your art support each other.

The secret lies in how an artist statement builds another bridge between the artist and the audience. An effective statement creates a personal connection to the artwork and stimulates our human thirst for "story". This, in turn, triggers longer memory storage about the artist by immersing the viewer in two languages: visual and linguistic.

QUESTIONS TO CONSIDERWhat are the basic themes of your work?

Why did you create this work?

What drives you as an artist to make the work you do?

What are some of your sources or influences?

How does this work differ from your previous work?

Are there artists you can think of who are working in a similar way or with similar themes?

Where do you believe your work fits with current contemporary art?

How does your work relate to other art?

6. Composition Activity 100 pointsDescription: Students will create an original self-portrait Multiple Me Narrative Project. This lesson is a dense lesson. Please take your time and be thoughtful about the journey that this project can allow you to have. Also, please be respectful of other students’ stories.

The Multiple Me Narrative Project should meet the following criteria: use at least three different self-portrait images (The self-portraits should include a bust, half length, and full length images.) the images should have a common theme, the images should tell a story, the images should have the background edited out and a more interesting background created, the project should be created in Photoshop, correctly use the filter tools to alter the original images, integrate the theme/story line and the filter use, the size shall be 22 by 34 inches, 300 resolution, and created in Photoshop.

The final image as a whole should tell a story. There should be visual evidence of a story. Try to refrain from making it a graphic novel. Be creative and thoughtful in the process of making your narrative project. Be bold in your selection of storyline. Show who you are and where you come from in this story. Be introspective in a story that needs telling. Do not be shy about who you are and how you show that in your story. The story should be true. The story should be about you. Think of a literal story or you can capture the mental journey that you have taken in your life thus far.

The portrait images and the alterations with filters should be appropriate for school, sized correctly to fit onto the page, have a common visual theme developed, and use of a color scheme. The images can range in size as long as they fit into the space of the printed page. Each image should have its own layer. Layers should be merged together when you are certain they are how you want them in the final printed page.

Save your project often. Do not use too many tools at once. The printed Multiple Me Narrative Project should meet the following criteria: at least

three different self-portrait poses must appear, the final poster size should be 22 inches by 34 inches with a 300 resolution, the order, placement, rotation, size of each self-portrait image is up to the student, the student should put his/her name on the printed Multiple Me Narrative page, and complete a grading rubric for the printed page.

Mr. Miller will demonstrate the group Critique. Students should pay close attention on how to participate in the group critique. Group Critiques should meet the following standards: Students must all participate in the critique to receive points. Students will be graded on volume, clear and understandable language, content cohesion, ability to explain design rational. Student will also be graded on their involvement in other critiques within your group.

ARTIST STATEMENTAn artist statement is an introductory text that provides a contextual background for your artwork. There is no formula for an artist statement, but it might include information about how the work developed (its source and direction), the underlying idea and structure, the conceptual aspects, your philosophies, and/or possible influences. In some cases, the statement may address the use of particular materials and processes.The artist statement is extremely important because it provides insight into the work by helping to clarify the focus or concept.

An artist statement is what, how, and why you do what you do, from your perspective.

This means that an artist statement is personal, as personal as your art. It is also honest, in the very same way that your art reflects a true expression of your being. Because an artist statement speaks to the relationship between you and your work, it needs to be as authentic as your work. When done well, the statement and your art support each other.

The secret lies in how an artist statement builds another bridge between the artist and the audience. An effective statement creates a personal connection to the artwork and stimulates our human thirst for "story". This, in turn, triggers longer memory storage about the artist by immersing the viewer in two languages: visual and linguistic.

QUESTIONS TO CONSIDERWhat are the basic themes of your work?Why did you create this work?What drives you as an artist to make the work you do?What are some of your sources or influences?How does this work differ from your previous work?Are there artists you can think of who are working in a similar way or with similar themes?Where do you believe your work fits with current contemporary art?How does your work relate to other art?

Example #1 explaining all of her bodies of work

Kathleen BitettiArtist Statement & Explanation of Bodies of work

Since the early 1990s, my work has involved the creation of conceptually based sociopolitical objects and installations. In 1992 I began stenciling text by hand onto objects. Hand stenciled text/language has now become a very prominent feature in my work and I continue to use the same stencil and medium (graphite) that I used in 1992. In my work, I deconstruct the American dream, fairy tales, nursery rhymes, and lullabies that are part of our childhood and adult culture. My work also addresses gender roles/gender assignment, the fragility of family dynamics, domestic violence and the underlying threads of violence and danger that underpin American society. Often times these themes are combined into installations that feature mundane domestic objects, painted pure white and are often embellished with stenciled text. The color white establishes a dream-like surreal quality, suggests notions of purity and safety, and formally unifies the disparate objects in each installation. The texts provide clues to content and interpretation. My "conceptual sculpture weds minimal form with maximal content" (Shawn Hill, "BayWindows" Nov. 14 96 p27).

I usually work on several bodies of work concurrently. I also create site specific temporary installations for indoor sites (I have in the past created temporary outdoor site specific work as well). I often rework a site specific installation into a self contained format that will enable the piece to be shown in a non site specific installation format/ environment. And often times elements from my sculptures, installations, and non site specific work are utilized in my site specific installations. In other words, the various bodies of work inform or cross pollinate each other.

The six specific bodies of work that I am working on concurrently:

"Weary Heads"- a series of ten life size beds. I began the series in late 1994. These beds are beautiful objects, but they are also very dangerous. Both stenciled text/language and pillows with text are prominent elements in the series. These works transform an object, that usually provides comfort, into one that has nightmare qualities.

"Forever Hold Your Peace" In 1992, I began this series of 11 large sculptural components that attempt to reveal the life of a person who is in a battering/ abusive environment. The majority of contemporary art work addressing domestic violence does not show the whole picture of what it is like to live with such violence on a daily basis, nor does it demonstrate the long time line of domestic violence. It is the goal of my work to more fully represent the long nightmare of domestic violence and to show the underlying thread of violence/danger that underlies such relationships.

Lullabies & Fairy Tales are other areas that I am investigating. Several of my works focus on deconstructing these forms of "childhood" entertainment (these themes also make appearances in the other bodies of work).

Pillows Talk- In 1993, I began working with pillows and stenciling text on them. I have created four major pieces that use only pillows (pillows are also an important element in the Weary Heads series).

Site Specific Installation Work- Birds is the most recent example of this work, but Lullaby/Rock A Bye Baby and one version of Who's Afraid of the Big Bad Wolf are also examples.

Works on Paper- My works on paper tend to differ from my 3-D/ installation work. These works are very personal pieces that have been inspired by and made for particular people in my life. Nor are these works minimal in form, color, or content. I often incorporate appropriated images and text into my works on paper and I usually sew these pieces by hand and/or by machine. Like in my 3D/installation works, the text is hand stenciled onto the piece. My works on paper are usually celebratory and often times meant to be humorous.

Kathleen BitettiArtist Statement

Since the early 1990s, my work has involved the creation of conceptually based sociopolitical objects and installations. In my work, I deconstruct the American dream, fairy tales, nursery rhymes, and lullabies that are part of our childhood and adult culture. My work also addresses gender roles/gender assignment, the fragility of family dynamics, domestic violence and the underlying threads of violence and danger that underpin American society. These themes are often combined with the metaphors commonly used by those in battering relationships into installations that feature mundane domestic objects, painted pure white and embellished with stenciled text. The color white establishes a dream-like surreal quality, suggests notions of purity and safety, and formally unifies the disparate objects in each installation. The texts provide clues to content and interpretation. My "conceptual sculpture weds minimal form with maximal content". (Shawn Hill, "BayWindows" Nov. 14 96 p27).

The two works, both Untitled 1991, are examples of my earlier work that addressed the overlooked issues of class in American society. Those who are in the lower classes are usually the ones who are "watched like goldfish" and must depend on others for their very survival. The monopoly game pieces are also very important clues to understanding the various facets of our so called classless society.

The piece entitled, Porter Crib 1997, is from a series of 10 beds entitled, "Weary Heads". I began the series in late 1994. These life size beds are beautiful objects, but they are also very dangerous. These works transform an object, that usually provides comfort, into one that has nightmare qualities and is incapable of providing comfort. Stenciled text/language is a prominent element in my "Weary Heads" bed series. The Porter Crib text is taken from a "Christianized" Celtic/Pagan childhood prayer. The prayer is stenciled on tracing paper, thus making it impossible for any infant to lie in the crib with out falling through on to the floor. Children are also at the mercy of others. Presently, I am working on completing two more of the beds in the series. I hope to show all 10 beds in a gallery setting in the future.

________________________________Example #3 explaining one piece

Kathleen BitettiArtist Statement

BirdsThese plaster birds were cast from two ceramic birds my mother had in our family home. Interestingly, the two original ceramic birds are exactly the same in every detail, except that one was painted blue indicating a Blue Jay, while the other was painted red indicating a cardinal. I chose to keep my birds white. These birds, in my mindscape, symbolize safety, good luck and purity. All the birds in the museum have been cast specifically for this show and I have placed them all in their specific sites within the museum.

I first made these white plaster birds to be elements in a 1996 site specific installation entitled, Lullaby/Rock A Bye Baby. The installation examined the duality of the lullaby: it is an extremely violent song that is considered a cherished "lullaby" that one sings to soothe children to sleep.

Ironically, while working on these birds for this show, I found out that many people believe that having any birds in their house, living or in any depiction, is a harbinger/cause of bad luck. Thus these birds, like the majority of my work, have conflicting meanings

Your Artist Statement: Explaining the UnexplainableQ: Why do I have to write an artist statement? It's stupid. If I wanted to write to express myself I would have been a writer. The whole idea of my art is to say things visually. Why can't people just look at my art and take away whatever experiences they will?A: Artist statements are not stupid; they're more like essential. And you don't have to be a writer to write one. And people already look at your art and take away whatever experiences they will. Your artist statement is about facts, a basic introduction to your art;

Page 51: Digital Imaging Color Theory€¦  · Web viewDigital Imaging Color Theory. Digital Imaging Class Workdays: 10 Points Possible: 700 Color Theory Project Techniques: Color Theory,

it's not instructions on what to experience, what to think, how to feel, how to act, or where to stand, and if it is, you'd better do a rewrite.

Business Suite Design Guidelines

Business Logo: A well-executed logo embodies the spirit and character of a company. A logo is a picture or stylized words that give the company identity. There are three basic design types.
