Celeste Kallios Final Project

Image
Artist Precedent/Inspiration For this project, I had wanted to do something that pertained to pit bulls. They are a breed of dog that is commonly portrayed as vicious and naturally deadly, so I thought that I could do an installation that purveyed the opposite idea. Showing that they can be cute and sweet, especially if they are in a home setting.  At first, I didn't really have any outside inspirations but after doing some research I found an artist who had a similar goal. Photographer Sophie Gamand did a photoshoot in which she had the pitties pose in flower crowns.  I wanted to do something similar but in the form of an installation. Using pretty colors and a homey setting I would hopefully make others feel happy about the pitties that are projected into it.  Rendering Starting off I made some patterns that I felt would aid in creating a positive scene. I used mostly warm colors and shapes people associate with pleasant experiences. Then I cut ou...

Taylor Guyton Final Project

PRECENDENT ARTIST So originally my projections are onto pillows and must deal with dreams because I am simply interested in the appeal of nightmares and weird dreams and comforting dreams. I could not find artist that projected on pillows, but I did find artist that inspired me for this project. There are two precedent Artist that I found inspiring to analyze. The first artist I found this artist named Ryohei Hase who turns his nightmares into paintings. Hase says “Sometimes dreams and nightmares inspire my work. I really enjoy looking back at dreams, especially when I had really fantastic ones as they could come from feelings deep in my mind”. Most of his artwork is fantasy based, but a lot of them are inspired through his seamless dreams. Hase is a Japanese artist based in Tokyo, and I could not find much biography about him. He is a contemporary traditional artist that caught my eye. His art looks similar to that of religious paintings, in a dream like setting, but often turns i...

Baylor Talcott Final Project

Image
Idea: For this project, I want to create a set of visuals for a song and project them onto three people. The visuals would correlate and interact as the music progresses. The visuals would change as the song progresses. I would then project this onto a complex surface to add a three-dimensional feel to the visuals. Music and video editing have been a passion of mine, and the visuals have always been a large part of why festivals and other aspects of EDM have grown. The reason behind doing this project would offer a chance for people who are stuck inside from COVID and act as a section of a virtual conference. The reason I chose to project it on the people instead of a wall is due to COVID-19. The festivals, concerts, and other events are completely dictated by the people who attend them. Without the people, there would be no following, therefore, no festivals or concerts. The musicians do it for the people, so why not make the people the main attention for the project?  ...

FINAL PROJECT PROPOSAL

Image
PRECEDENT ARTIST  "In a World of My Own"      Eugenia Loli is a vintage collage artist that uses magazines to create visual narratives. She exploits a sense of bizarre surrealism and style that is very different than other artists. In choosing background images and people doing random things there is humor and bizarreness to her creations. Instead of adding smoke to a flying jet she adds wrapped candy falling from the sky; instead of a woman sleeping on a bed there is an entire landscape of mountains. She describes her work as having a "narrative" by depicting a grand scale of either sarcasm, danger, or a chill vibe. Her use of imagination and fulfillment of color and shape brings a uniqueness to a dreamlike world.    In order to create a more visual and higher resolution image Loli uses photoshop as her medium. Rather than cutting magazines with scissors, she uses a more tech involved skill with this software in order to share h...
