I presented following image:
My fellow students analyzed and commented this picture.
These were the comments:
- can’t tell if photograph or screenprint or silkscreen
- puzzle of medium
- airbrushed
- spraypaint but also register that you get with screenprinting (even though you know it’s not that)
- something about the cyan yellow magenta black makes you think if it is in the realm of an experiment
- layering is interesting – looks like the circle is covered by black. circle rapid speed down
- terms of material: the sphere looks like glass, reflecting light. being held by black container
- reminded Mia of a mask – cross where the eyes are – model of a face
- sphere turns into a disk – kind of moving
- physical laws, importance in color laws (subtraction, addition, primary colors)
- abstract composition
- would be interesting what paper would be chosen if it was prainted
- matte paper would make it completely different than glossy paper
- what color would you add to the shadow to make it dark
- „weirdy digital pointilism“
- like a color wheel
- contemporary context:
- kandinsky
- mid-central modern (like Mad Men series)
- streamline design
- Brâncuși sculptures: in terms of what minimal form would you have to make to create a portrait?
- cosmic (heavenly body going through transition) passing another heavenly body
- hyperrealism painting
- play between fore- and background
- distortion of gradual-red like a radial blur
