Hey! This is all about my graffiti tag. If you don't know what a graffiti tag is look no further, i will explain. A graffiti tag is a name or some kind of symbol that defines a graffiti artist. Usually it is made in a way that expresses the artists beliefs or their style of art. Mine says a lot about me. I hate the spot light, in fact i have an awful fear of public speaking. So when i made my signature word "Winger" I was thinking about the actually definition of winger. It's someone in a sport mainly rugby) that attacks from the sides, and might even protect the person with the ball on the sides. I like to think of myself as someone who protects others. Again, I hate the spot light. The one wing that's burning is symbolizing someone slightly breaking. The fire is spreading, and destroying the wing. It means that the kind of persona i want to take on, is a continuously self harming one. You have to put others before you 24/7, and sometimes you have to be OK with being taken advantage of. Man talk about a long explanation. I hope you enjoy my blog, and and inspired!
By "Responding" project idea was to take five emotional pictures and show them to people, and then document their thoughts, reactions, and feelings on the picture. People would sometimes say the same thing, especially when it came to how the picture made them feel. But when it came to interpreting the picture, (figuring out the message the artist was trying to send) many were different. This is because people have different mind sets. Sometimes even how you were raised determines how a picture speaks to you. I loved doing this project because I liked seeing their reactions and learning what they thought about pictures I had also thought about and interpreted. Thank you for reading my blog! I admit, I hated this project. I'm just njot good at finding information and putting it into an interesting format! And it didn't help that I chose a difficult topic. Having chosen street artists, a lot of them don't label their drawings, and they do it in secret so their isn't a specific time it was created. all in all i did enjoy looking at their work, because i love street art.
