My final project is inspired by an image of Basquiat and Andy Warhol. Basquiat is someone who I consider to be a big influence on my life (I have a tattoo of his crown). In my project, I am the subject, and I am portrayed as a boxer. I knew that I wanted to do something revolving around empowerment, and I choose to do mine on women empowerment. Since I am familiar with Photoshop, I chose to do a gif. I would categories my work to be mixed media, as I created the background and take a photograph of myself. I believe that my project is very modern, considering it was done using technology, and I believe it is something that women today could relate to. It could also convey that I, as the subject, am encouraging women's empowerment. I think I was a bit inspired by my first self-portrait for my last self-portrait. Also, I rushed to put something together for my first self-portrait and I really did try to come up with a meaningful idea and execute it well.
