Re-Learning after school
As an artist the world around us inspires us and in order to create work we have to research topics to fully understand in order to make the work meaning full. And not just will this is what I think and feel about what happened its more powerful if it’s based on the story or thru the work if thru the work if the artist can highlight an unknown fact. Or an unknown part of history, and by that I mean events that aren’t taught in schools or aren’t in textbooks.
I think it’s a beautiful thing when people come together and have conversations about art. And when it comes to working together the flow of ideas can cause inspiration for other people in the group of change there thought processes. Prior to this class, I’ve never worked with a group of people on a project, It’s hard to hard with other people and deal with personalities and get the project started and be able to focus on a project and have everyone be ok with it is difficult to do.
Working on a project for years for me makes me procrastinate and feel like maybe I shouldn’t finish the project because since it’s not done at this point. However it does make me think of what exactly I want to say with this project, why I am doing the project, and why did I choose to start the project and use the materials I did. So the thought process is more developed than just getting to work on the project and finishing it. I also find my self-fixing things on projects after the fact. I do that either because I wanted to do it this way but couldn’t do to the rules of the assignment or I think will be better the new way.
I’ve always been drawn to decorative arts, and thru my years of classes I’ve learned about work being “kitschy” and find my self-evaluating the work. Maybe I do that because I’m trying not to like it, I’m not really sure. But there’s a way to design decorative without it being not fine art based. Because everything is a learning process which can make it into a area of fine art that’s not taught in art schools, like how Judy found porcelain painting after she had graduated form college with her background in fine art she had to learn a new way of art that in a way isn’t know or respected as art or fine art.
I love the concept of D.I.Y, I learned about it a couple of years ago but I’m not really familiar with artists or collectives which why I chose to take this class. I believe that art is moving towards this type of practice. Artist just need to get out there, outside the classroom, outside the museum or gallery and have their work is experienced. Our culture is very internet based, I feel like what I do I should post it online for the work to be able to reach a wide audience and try to get my name out there anyway I can, because more than ever the art worlds more competitive and with the economic crisis. It forces artist to bind together or work alone and work and go back to create art that they like not for a specific show or commission.
