For this next project, i have a few ideas that i really enjoy. There are many things that can be done with this assignment, imagination seems to be the only restriction. The assignment is to express multiple aspects of who i am. When creating this project, i intend on keeping these main ideas in mind:
-Events in my life
-Aspects of my personality
-What I enjoy
I haven't decided if this project shall be more on the conceptual side or the perceptual side. In fact it might even be a bit of both. I'm really looking forward to this piece and i intend on having a lot of fun with it!

Cui Xiuwen + Cindy Sherman + Frida Kahlo = Mad Feminist Art
These three particular artists, through the use of their differing forms of art, all create a visually strong message. They help to solidify the role of women in the art world and can be considered to be strong influences in the feminist art world. They also show how wide a variety the Feminist Art Community possesses.
Cui Xiuwen: Through the use of photography, this artist grabs moments in time that tell emotional stories. She also seems to use computer art to help increase the saturation of her images; causing the naturalistic elements to really pop out of the picture. She takes pictures of landscapes and then crops figures into the moment, creating emotionally gripping pieces.
Cindy Sherman: This artist, as i had mentioned in a previous post, is a very innovative one. She would plan out her pieces with precise attention to detail. She would then put herself into the art and create characters for each piece, which she would put through different situations; taking photographs of the events being acted out.
Frida Kahlo: This artist differs very much from the previous two, her form of art is a more classical take. She was a renowned painter who would illustrate the troubles that she had to go through during her life. Her pieces, though surreal and abnormal, were emotionally invoking.
