as a group we were all shown various different art pieces, and had to decide whether or not we each thought it could be called "art" or not. Obviously this sparked some dispute as some of the "art" pieces seemed rather ridiculous (one of which literally being a pile of bin bags) I had came to the conclusion that most were in fact art in their own way. Be it that they were simply different, or whether they depicted a beautiful thing, most of the pieces we were shown were art.
Impressionism Presentation
To better understand art, artists, their work and their methods, we were all split into groups and given a topic to research and produce a presentation on, my group was given "Impressionism" so we each did some research and created this:
Creatures and their symbolism in art
For our "Creature Feature" project, we had to better understand the symbolism and meaning behind creatures in art, in different cultures and throughout history. We were firstly tasked with finding the meaning behind 4 specific animals (Dove, Crocodile, Monkey and Butterfly) As well as then finding the meaning to three others of our own choice.
Here is the list of all of the animals we were firstly all asked to find the meaning behind:
And here are the 3 animals I chose to find myself:
Artist Research
For our "Creature Feature" project I found two 2D artists who's work I absolutely loved, for their art styles they both used, the type of creatures they were creating, and the various software they would use to create their art, here is my work on them, including art from the two of them.
Comparison of artists
To help us to experiment with different art styles, and to be able to detect and compare multiple differences between two artists, in this case the two artists were Michael Broom and H.R. Giger. These two artists both work on concept art for aliens and alien themed work, I created this venn diagram.
