The Juxtaposition of Sacred and Mundane Imagery as a Strategy in Making Art

In my problem I explored the nature and results of the juxtaposition of the sacred and mundane and its relationship to the specific formal elements of image and content in the paintings. I analyzed a small number of paintings (approximately four), selected from the new body of work. This analysis was conducted by answering each of the six stated questions as they pertained to the selected group of paintings as a whole.

The Self Portrait: Intimacy and the Effects of Scale

I perceived humans as a certain size, approximately five feet to six feet tall. This reality compelled me to do full length, life size, and larger portraits of my body again overlaid with the lizard's body. The study involved an investigation of self portraits and the effects scale had on their intimacy.

Symbolic Significance of the Shelter Image in my Sculpture (open access)

Symbolic Significance of the Shelter Image in my Sculpture

The source and development of the shelter as a personal symbol in my work has been explored in a body of work consisting of twelve pieces. The approximate size of these objects is 10" X 14" X 18". I plan to address the following questions during the review of this body of work. 1. What part do architectural sources play in the development of the shelter symbol? 2. What part do cultural and anthropological sources play in the development of the shelter symbol? 3. How does surface embellishment affect the shelter symbol? 4. How does the size affect the shelter symbol?
