ART TALK RESPONSE: DAVID NAJIB KASIR

WELL! AGAIN! ANOTHER PAINTER???

BUT! HELL YEAH!!! I LIKE SOME OF HIS WORKS!

I ENJOY HIS IDEA OF COMBINATION; HE COMBINES SOME FRAGMENTAL ELEMENTS THAT WE COULD EASILY DISCOVER IN LIFE AND HIS COLORED PATTERNS. THAT IS HIS WORK STYLE. I LIKE IT. I REMEMBER IN ONE OF HIS ARTWORKS, THERE IS A COMBINATION BETWEEN THE VERY DUSTY RUINS AND THE COLORFUL PATTERNS. THE SHARP CONTRAST IN COLOR AND CONTENT GIVES ME A GREAT VISUAL STIMULATION. AND ALSO, HIS ABSTRACT WORK STYLE MAKES HIS WORK OUTSTANDING. THE ABSTRACT SELF-PORTRAIT IS VERY INTERESTING.

MOREOVER, HE THREW OUT A QUESTION “SHOULD YOUR FIRST PIECE LOOK LIKE THE LAST ONE IN YOUR COLLECTION?”

MY ANSWER IS NO! NOT NECESSARILY!

PROJECT #2

THE ROLE OF AUTHORSHIP IS THAT PEOPLE COULD TELL “HELL YEAH THAT’S BOWEN’S WORK!” BECAUSE THERE IS MY SOUL, MY STYLE, AND EVEN MY EXPERIENCE IN MY WORK. MY WORK EQUALS TO MY NAME IN SOME ASPECTS. OF COURSE, I CONSIDER MY WORK ORIGINAL, BECAUSE I EXERCISE MY AESTHETIC BY READING A HUGE VARIETY OF WORKS, WHICH ARE IN VERY DIFFERENT KINDS OF STYLES. THEN I COME UP WITH MY OWN STUFF. WHEN THE AUDIENCE LOOK AT MY WORK, THEY COULD ONLY TELL OH THAT ARTWORK LOOKED A LITTLE BIT LIKE BLABLABLA’S WORK, BUT ALSO A LITTLE BIT LIKE DLADLADLA’S WORK. BUT FUCK NO, IT IS JUST L I K E, THAT STYLE IS BOWEN’S STYLE MY ORIGINAL SHIT. EVERYONE WHO STARES AT MY WORK FOR MORE THAN 3 MINUTES COULD “TAKE POSSESSION” OF MY WORK AND DERIVE THEIR OWN MEANING FROM IT. I THINK WHEN THE AUDIENCE GET THE BEAUTY OF MY STUFF, AT THAT MOMENT, THEY TAKE POSSESSION OF IT. AND THEY COULD ALSO DERIVE THEIR OWN MEANING FROM IT BECAUSE PEOPLE FROM DIFFERENT EXPERIENCES OF LIFE COULD DEFINI...

FINAL PROJECT REPORT

MY PROJECT THIS TERM IS CONTINUALLY WORKING ON SHARING WITH THE AUDIENCE MY PERSPECTIVE OF APPRECIATING THIS WORLD VIA DIGITAL PHOTOGRAPHY. THE WHOLE PROJECT IS AN EXTENSION OF THE FLICKER POST I HAVE DONE LAST YEAR. IN THIS PROJECT, I ADDED 230 PHOTOS TO MY PHOTO STREAM. MOST OF THEM WERE TAKEN DURING MY TRAVELING ALL AROUND THE WORLD; WHAT I AM DOING CURRENTLY WAS EDITING AND POSTING. ALSO, OF COURSE, THERE ARE SOME PICS THAT I TOOK DURING THIS TERM. AMONG ALL THE PHOTOS, SOME OF THEM HAVE BEEN SORTED OUT INTO THE EXISTING ALBUMS, BUT ALSO SOME ARE ADDED INTO THE NEW ALBUMS, WHICH HAVE BEEN TITLED CREATIVELY. HERE IS THE BRIEF INTRODUCTION TO THE NEWLY ADDED ALBUMS. THE SHOW! THERE ARE TWO BIG EVENTS THAT HAPPENED IN THIS TERM: THE VOODIS FASHION SHOW AND THE SENIOR SHOW. I SHOWED UP MY WORK IN BOTH TWO FASHION/ART SHOWS AND THERE ARE SOME FANTASTIC MOMENTS THAT HAVE BEEN CAPTURED BY MY LENSES. IN THIS ALBUM, THERE ARE SOME PHOTOS OF ME AND MY MODELS. ...

RICK OWENS

RICK OWENS IS AN AMERICAN-BORN DESIGNER LIVING IN PARIS, KNOWN FOR HIS ABSTRACT, YET APPROACHABLE AVANT-GARDE DESIGNS. BORN RICHARD SATURNINO OWENS, HE BEGAN HIS LABEL IN CALIFORNIA IN 1994 AND NOW OVERSEES A VERITABLE FASHION EMPIRE FROM A FIVE-STORY COMPOUND IN PARIS. IF THERE'S ONE CHARACTERISTIC THAT HAS DEFINED HIS LIFE, IT HAS BEEN OWENS' FIERCE INDEPENDENCE. HIS ECCENTRIC BRUTALIST APPROACH IS EVIDENT IN HIS FASHION, HIS FURNITURE, AND EVEN HIS PERSONAL LIFE. RICK'S REPRESENTATIVE ABSTRACT FASHION DESIGN: THE FIRST GENERATION GEOBASKET INITIALLY INTRODUCED IN FALL/WINTER 2006'S "DUSTULATOR" COLLECTION, RICK OWENS DESIGNED THE GEOBASKET BECAUSE HE FELT THAT ATHLETIC SHOES WERE SIMPLY TOO "PROSAIC." PULLING ELEMENTS FROM NIKE, ADIDAS AND PUMA, OWENS WAS ATTEMPTING TO—IN HIS WORDS—CREATE MONSTER TRUCKS FOR HIS FEET. T...
