DECO

SHE IS AN AMAZING     RESEARCH BASED ARTIST WHO LOOKS TO MUSEUM PHOTOGRAPHIC AND ANTHROPOLOGIC ARCHIVES, WHICH THEN SHE CREATE BODIES OF ARTWORK OUT OF THOSE. FOR ONE ATTRACTIVE ARTWORK SHE MADE IS THAT SHE EMBEDDED A VERY OLD PHOTOGRAPH UNDER ENCAUSTIC SO THAT THE AUDIENCE WILL NOT ABLE TO SEE THE IDENTITY OF THE PERSON NOR CAN THEY CREATE STEREOTYPES OF WHO THEY ARE OR THE CULTURE IDENTITY THEY COME FROM.     SHE CREATED A COIL POT, WHICH WAS MADE IN HER STUDIO WITH THE HELP OF HER ANCESTOR. SHE ALSO MENTIONED THAT IT IS VERY NECESSARY FOR HER TO BE ABLE TO CHANGE EACH MEDIUM FOR A BODY OF WORK BASED UPON HER RESEARCH, WHICH ARE BASED ON HER IDEA AND HER INHERITED CULTURE.                                                                                      SHE ALSO CREATES A BODY OF ARTWORK FROM AN NBA REGULATION BASKETBALL TO TALK ABOUT THE RACISM. IT IS AN ARTWORK INSPIRE THOSE PEOPLE WITH “INFERIOR CULTURE BACKGROUND” WHO GOOD AT SPORT TO BECOME A SUCCESSFUL ATHLETE.             

THE INSTALLATION ARTIST VALARIA TATERA PROVIDE ME A NEW IDEA OF USING THE RIBBONS: SHE CREATES HER ARTWORK WITH TONES OF RIBBONS HANGING ON THE CELLING. HER INSPIRATION OF THE ARTWORK IS FROM THE WISCONSIN STATE FOR BEING A HOME FOR EMBRACE THOSE INDIGENOUS PEOPLE. AND THE IDEA IS ABOUT THE HOLDING SPACE FOR INDIGENOUS. IN HER ARTWORK I COULD DEEPLY FEEL HER IDEA. BASED ON MY UNDERSTANDING, THE RIBBONS OVERALL CREATED A GIANT PLACE, WHICH INDICATE THE STATE OF WISCONSIN. AND EACH RIBBON REPRESENTS THE AMERICAN PEOPLE, IN BETWEEN THE RIBBONS, THERE ARE BLANKS, WHICH ARE REPRESENT THE INDIGENOUS WHO WITHOUT THE STABLE LIVING ENVIRONMENT, WITHOUT THE BACKUPS, AND WITHOUT GOOD SOCIAL CONNECTION. THE USAGE OF RIBBON IS A BRILLIANT IDEA SINCE MANY RIBBONS TOGETHER COULD CREATE SPACE, BUT EACH RIBBON COULD ALSO REPRESENT SOME INDIVIDUALS. ACCORDING TO MCLUHAN: “WE EMPLOY VISUAL AND SPATIAL METAPHORS FOR A GREAT MANY EVERYDAY EXPRESSIONS. WE INSIST ON EMPLOYING VISUAL METAPHORS EVEN WHEN WE RE

  I WOULD LOVE TO POST THIS BLOG OF WRITING ABOUT THE SHOW WE DO IN THE MUDD GALLERY. I REALLY ENJOY APPRECIATING EVERYONE’S WORK ON THE SHOW, THESE ARTWORKS ARE LIKE WINDOWS PROVIDE ME A PATH TO VIEW THIS WORLD THROUGH THOUGH PEOPLE’S PERSPECTIVE. AS I ALWAYS DEFINE MY ARTWORK AS MY PERSPECTIVE OF APPRECIATING THIS WORLD, I LOVE TO SEE THIS WORLD THROUGH OTHERS’, AND THIS SHOW SATISFIED ME A LOT! ONE WORK LET ME IMPRESSED A LOT, IN WHICH THERE ARE SOME BLUE AND WHITE LINES AND OVERALL VAGUE BACK GROUP, I THOUGHT THAT SHOULD BE A CAMERA PROBLEM BUT THAT IS ART. THIS ARTWORK HAS MEET THE AGREEMENT WITH MY POINT THAT SOME TOP ART SOME NOT MADE MY VERY SERIOUS PROCESS, CONVERSELY THEY ARE CREATED BY MISTAKE. OVERALL, IT IS MY GREAT PLEASURE TO SEE EVERYONE’S WORK IN THE GALLERY. FOR ME, I CHOOSE THE TWO-PICTURE NAMED VAGUE FOR THE SHOW, WHICH ARE NOT THE MOST SATISFACTORY PICTURE I TOOK THIS TERM, BUT THE MOST APPROPRIATE ONE FOR THE SHOW. THE BOOK I CREATED IS NAMED   DO NOT OPEN   BASED

IN THIS PROJECT, I AM WORKING ON DOING RESEARCH OF CHARLOTTE MOORMAN WHO IS A BRILLIANT CELLIST, AND ADVOCATED FOR AVANT-GARDE MUSIC, AND FREQUENTLY COLLABORATE WITH THE KOREAN AMERICAN NAM JUN PAIK. THE PERFORM ART SHE DOES HAVE SOMETHING IN COMMON WITH MCLUHAN’S CLAIM THAT “TELEVISION COMPLETES THE CYCLE OF HUMAN SENSORY”, WHAT SHE DO RELATED TO THE QUOTE IS THE TELEVISION BRA. MY THESIS IS TELEVISION NOT ONLY COMPLETES THE CYCLE OF HUMAN SENSORY, BUT ALSO ENRICHES THE HUMAN’S ART ELEMENTS. AND AS RESPONDING TO THE BOOK TITLE “ THE MEDIUM IS A MESSAGE” CHARLOTTE MOORMAN IS THE MEDIUM AND THE MESSAGE IS WHAT THE NAM JUN PAIK DID IN ART. MOORMAN SUCCESSFULLY  COMBINE THE TV BRA, THE CELLO, AND HERSELF AS ONE BIG UNITS; AS SHE MENTIONED: “TV BRA IS ONE THIRD OF [THE PIECE], I’M ONE THIRD OF IT, AND MY CELLO IS ONE THIRD OF IT. WHEN WE’RE ALL TOGETHER, THE WORK IS COMPLETE.”  MOORMAN NOT ONLY FAMOUS FOR HER TV BRA ART,  SHE IS ALSO A FEMINISM ARTIST. SHE KEPT HER ATTITUDE IN PERFORMING A

I WOULD LOVE TO ILLUSTRATE MY FINAL PROJECT AS ADDING MORE PICTURES IN MY FLICKERS. I ADDED 18 PICTURES I TOOK RECENTLY AND PASS WHICH ALSO SHOWING MY PERSPECTIVE OF PERCEIVING THIS WORLD. I PUT SOME OF THEM IN THE ALBUM WHICH ALREADY EXISTED, AND I ALSO CREATE NEW ALBUMS FOR THEM. LET ME TELL YOU MORE BELOW.     NEW CREATED ALBUMS:   APPARELS: AS I AM A FASHION DESIGNER, I WOULD LIKE TO PUT SOME PICTURE OF FASHION APPARELS ON MY FLICKER’S POSTS. IN THAT ALBUM, I ADDED TWO PICTURES OF THE COLLABORATION ITEMS I BROUGHT LAST YEAR: “VANS WITH MASTERMIND JAPAN”. AS THE IDEA OF COLLABORATION BETWEEN BRANDS, WHICH BROUGHT UP BY HIROSHI FUJIWARA IS A MILESTONE IN THE FASHION HISTORY. IT IS WORTH TO POSE SOMETHING ABOUT THAT. ALSO, I HAVE SOME 2 PICTURES ABOUT ME WITH THE FASHION OUTFIT. AND THERE IS ONE PICTURE ABOUT ME AND MY GIRLFRIEND WEARING THE TABI BY MAISON MARGIELA. WE PUT THE ROSE BETWEEN THE FINGER CRACKS.   DIGITALS: IN THIS ALBUM, I POST SOME PICTURE I TOOK WITH SOME EFFECTS: THER

  THIS IS ACTUALLY I FIRST TIME SERIOUSLY MAKE MUSIC ON GARAGE BAND, AND I FIND THAT PROCESS IS REALLY INTERESTING. GENERALLY, I GET SOME INSPIRATION FROM THE RIVER BECAUSE I LIVE AT THE TREVER HALL, WHICH RIGHT BY THE RIVER, AND ONE DAY, I JUST SIT BY THE RIVER AND CREATE THIS ONE-MINUTE SOUNDSCAPE. I FIRSTLY CREATE A SET OF THE DRUMBEATS AND FEEL LIKE IT IS A LITTLE MONOTONOUS; AND THEN I ADD ON OTHER BEATS WITH THE LAUNCH PADS TO MAKE THE BEATS HAVE LAYERS. THEN I USE THE STRING INSTRUMENTS MAINLY CELLO TO BE THE MAIN RHYTHM. AFTER THAT, I FEEL LIKE I NEED TO PUT SOME BASS ELEMENT TO ENRICH THE SOUND VARIETY OF MY SOUNDSCAPE. AFTER I FINISHED THAT AND LISTEN TO THE WHOLE THING, I FEEL LIKE I NEED TO CHANGE SOME PARTS OF THE LAUNCH PADS, AND I ADJUST IT OVER AND OVER AGAIN UNTIL I SATISFIED. I ENJOY THE PROCESS OF MAKING EACH PART WORKS TOGETHER VERY MUCH, I HOPE YOU GUYS ENJOY MY SOUNDSCAPE. 

  GENERALLY, IN MY PHOTO PROJECT, I ILLUSTRATE MY PERSPECTIVE OF PERCEIVING THIS WORLD. MY PROJECT ARE SEPARATE TO FOUR SECTIONS, WHICH ARE FOUR ALBUMS, AND I WOULD LIKE TO INTRODUCE EACH ALBUM TO HELP YOU GUYS APPRECIATE.     VAGUE:  IN THIS ALBUM, I PUT 8 PICTURES SIMILARLY ABOUT THE LANDSCAPE I SEE ON THE ROAD. PEOPLE NORMALLY PICTURE WHAT THEY WANT CLEAR AND SOLID, BUT I DO NOT WANT TO DO THAT; SOME INDISTINGUISHABLE BOUNDARIES OF THE CHARACTERS WILL MAKE MY PROJECT UNIQUE AND HAVE A DIFFERENT KIND OF BEAUTY. WHEN YOU SEE MY PROJECT, YOU CAN TELL WHAT OBJECTS THEY ARE, BUT YOU CANNOT SEE THE CLEAR BOUNDARY OF THEM. THE VAGUE EFFECT IS MADE BY THE HIGH-SPEED MOVING CAR.   ADDICTION: IN THIS ALBUM, I PUT 5 PICTURES THAT ARE ALL ABOUT SOMETHING ADDICTED FOR ME.  1.       THE ART MAGAZINES: AS I DO RT DESIGNING STUFF, READING THE ART MAGAZINES IS PROBABLY THE FASTEST WAY TO BROADEN MY HORIZON AND TO GIVE ME INSPIRATION ABOUT DESIGNING, THERE ARE DEFINITELY SOME GREAT ELEMENTS I COULD F

     AS THE RESPONSE TO MACLUHAN’S QUOTATION THAT “MARCH BACK TO THE FUTURE”, THE IDEA THAT POPS UP IN MY MIND IS THE CIRCULATION, WHICH IS SOMETHING COMES UP AND DEAD THEN COMES UP AGAIN. THE MAIN POINT IN MY VIDEO IS ABOUT THE BELLBOTTOM WHICH WAS A VERY TRENDY APPAREL IN THE 20 TH  CENTURY AND THEN DISAPPEAR IN THE FASHION CIRCLE, BUT RECENTLY IT POPS UP INTO THE FASHION WORLD AGAIN! MY WHOLE VIDEO IS GOSE IN CHRONOLOGICAL ORDER AND THERE ARE SOME HITS IN IT. LET ME EXPLAIN!   RIVER: (BEGINNING &ENDING) THE RIVER CENE IS LOCATED AT THE BEGINNING AND THE ENDING OF THE VIDEO. AS THE MAIN IDEA OF THAT VIDEO IS ABOUT THE CIRCULATION, RIVER WOULD BE A GREAT METAPHOR. WATES IN THE RIVER COME AND GO, THERE ARE ALWAYS FRESH RESOURCES THAT COME INTO THE RIVER AND FILL THE RIVER. THE INDICATION OF THE RIVE IS ABOUT THE OLD THINGS GOING AWAY AND COMING UP AGAIN.    THE SUN ELEMENTS: (1 ST  SCENE, 2 ND  SCENE, 3 RD  SCENE, 4 TH  SCENE) MY VIDEO MAINLY CONSISTS OF 4PARTS, I HAVE EACH PART BE
