Its been a while. Two weeks of placement has flow past and lucky this class temporary closed for the time being. Coming back was good, I had a lot of ideas and questions.
Today we looked at video art and different artists that have influenced this particular type of art during the years. we particularly looked at Nam Jane Piak video's on YouTube. Other people's work was weird and a bit unsettling to watch. after that we say how to use a video camera but because I had already taped my clouds video I just continued with my work.
Today I finished another final. I will post this image up. I was very Happy with it because it had my 2 friends in it as well as an idea I had come up with.
I want to find an artist who has done similar work so when I present my artwork, I can talk about my influences. I have digitally changed a lot of this image for instance the colour as you can plainly see.
I will be looking at the video art world website and choosing an artist who I find interesting and adding some of their work onto my blog.
The artist whos work I found interesting was Claire Bain. Born in New Mexico, United States, 1975.
Her film work has informed my painting and photography, and vice versa. She has two approaches to film/video. One is more formal, primarily concerned with light, composition, emulsion and rhythm; meaning reveals itself gradually or indirectly. The other approach is a direct communication of thoughts, observations and questions through the use of characters.
I choose Clair Bain becasue of the work she has done with cats, I have not seen it all but from what I have its humourous.
