I feel like the people of my generation is in between two ages, one before the boom of corporations and technology, and one that is run by technology and large corporations. When attempting to create art that is new, and provoking without being overly exposed, I looked to society to find something that is drives our current community, and I found that it all came back to an underlying of corporation based entertainment. I then decided to put this into some of my work, which I like to call, “Corrupted Corporate.”
In this line of work, I am taking well known large corporate symbols and altering them to represent the reality of the result of the use or the effects of the product. I like to find the ultimate extreme result of the product or corporations have on our society. Since our society is so focused on the hip new thing, and these things tend to not be good for our health, I like to build large replicas of these iconic symbols with subtle, yet recognizable differences to the image to allow the viewer to find the hidden results that come out of the overuse and the takeover of large corporations.
I admire how you managed your introduction. By introducing a large concept and then narrowing it down to your reaction to it through your work you kept it short but interesting. Nicely done.
ReplyDeleteI am interested in your artists statement but I want to know more about the materials you are using and the genre you are working in. Tell me more about how you became interested in this in this subject. You are on the edge of technologies big beginning. We are making the rules that will change the world and no one knows how it will affect the world of tomorrow but no on knew how their yesterday would affect our today. Do you consider how your interests might be influenced by politics? Sorry just a few thoughts.
ReplyDeleteI feel like the people of my generation is... This is improper grammar, it should read, I feel like the people of my generation are...
