Final Written Art Project (500 words) carefully and creatively wri.docxMalikPinckney86
Final Written Art Project (500 words) carefully and creatively written words and sentences. Artist Statement (250 words)
WRITTEN ART PROJECT
Create a disjunctive or non-narrative piece
that engages all three aspects of reality that we have been discussing throughout the quarter: 1) larger political, social, and economic realities 2) personal or human dramatic situation and 3) detritus of existence. Make sure each of these are well represented and that they do not merely serve as a backdrop or props for other parts of your piece. In other words, make sure each of these aspects of reality is given its due as determining of your or others reality.
Possible Strategies and Advice:
Switch between first and third person perspectives. Make use of actual seeings—what you see. Describe and only occasionally explain or meditate. Meditate a great deal but be sure you are specific . Enact and don’t preach.
Create a concept (a title for your piece) that gives the reader a sense of the intent of your work.
This concept should serve to suggest complementary or conflictual relations between the different parts of your piece. Ultimately in placing all your parts together, in proximity to one another, you want the “whole” to be greater than the sum of the parts.
ARTIST STATEMENT
Please describe the intent of your piece and how you think its disjunctive form allows you to create a sense of reality that you wish to create. Please consider key words and concepts from the module syllabus as well as the ideas that have emerged from course discussions and thought challenges. You might also find these artist’s statements of use:
