Midterm Project Wk_5




• What is the subject of your image?
The subject of my images is me, and only myself because I have found out through trail and error that to be the best person you can possibly be you have to discover your self first. I realized you have to find out who you are before you can help and deal with others this takes time and multiple different experiences but eventually it will happen.
• What is the content of your image?
The content of my image is pictures of me created and cut in such a way that it is an optical illusion.
• why did you make the choices that led to the composition?
I really wanted to make something different and that would stand out and I am a beginner at that isn’t very good at painting or drawing so I decided to take more of an arts and crafts direction and take that with the kind of art the amazes me the most illusions. Due to the fact I love being in a state of shock.
• What do you think this image conveys to the viewers?
People may view this and think I have am very bipolar because I have many feeling all at once but that isn’t the message I want to give off.
• What artists have influenced your self portrait?
I really didn’t have any artists that inspired me because I originally thought of the idea on my own of how I can get all the face into one project then I decided that I could space them out and decided to face them in a perpendicular formation to create the artwork.
• What techniques have you used to create your self portrait?
The only technique I used the optical illusion technique to create the separate 4 face but the ability to see all of them at the different times and the perfect angle.
• Why and how does this project represent you?

This project represents me because when I initially meet people I don’t really show them all side of me or give them a glimpse into my emotions because it was how I was raised to be a tough guy and boys don’t get sad or men don’t cry. Obviously this is not true because in times of serious trouble or immense pain I will shed a tear because I am human and I will be sad once a while if I am having a rough day but society has built us to not show this on our sleeves and not show everyone how we are feeling because we are men and we have to be strong. Also I created them at the angle because when you first meet me it is similar to looking at my project head on I don’t show you any of the emotions but once you get to know me and I’m comfortable with you will see more and more different parts of me then others. Also I realized that I left the project hollow that’s its not filled and I found that it could represent how I feel inside when I am not sure what to do if I don’t have someone there to show how I’m feeling or be able to speak with because I guys for guys its different I really don’t just cry to anyone about my problems because I can be judged or will be criticized.
