Well this project was really weird haha. I had to have my friend hold my leg while I xeroxed myself standing on a high chair so I could reach the copy machine. It was a little scary when I had to do my feet because I had to stand on the xerox machine... I did not want to buy the school a new copy machine... not good haha. It was interesting to see what I was going to do with my xerox'd self. It's a little creepy to see myself staring at me whenever I look at the pillow on my couch. With this project, I wanted to let people know how I felt when someone tries to quiet me.... F-U... that's why I had cut off the fingers except the bird to express exactly what was going through my head.
Your project involving different body parts on a pillow case was pretty cool.
ReplyDeleteOne side of the pillow really gave me a kind of an eastern religious feeling. The 3 pictures were aligned perfectly. The eyes on the hands and finger going up the face, with the inserted cutout, really gave a spiritual presence (middle picture). Like if the center was some meditating Godess. The two replica pictures on either side added a guardian feeling to the center piece.
Overall this side of the pillow was my favorite for the abstract use of body parts mismatched together to give a more significant personality presence.
The other side was cool too with the fingers saying no. See no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil was the feeling I got when looking at this side of the piece. Very good of using various parts the feet, hands, ears, lips, etc. They all fit together perfectly.
The use of a black pillow for the background was brilliant. It matched perfectly to the images and really centered our eyes to the piece.
I really enjoyed this work.
Great Job :)
