Installation Art, Performance Art, and Laurie Anderson

                                                     -Installation Art-
Installation art uses sculpture material and media to make a particular working space to make something out of it. Installation art does not only take place in the gallery but in the public also.

  -Performance Art-

Performance art is when a single person or group performs on a stage in costumes. It can be any where, anytime, and can be 6 hours long. Performance art includes four simple elements the performer's body, time, space, and a relationship between the performer(s) and the audience. Performance art is different from other arts because a person or machine is doing the work unlike paintings or sculptures.

koyaanisqatsi

there were many powerful images. i liked it but it got boring after a while.. there should have been some words or something.. other than the boringness of it say  KOYAANISQATSI! the whole time it was really good. i would show this to my art class (if i had one)

The Divinge bell and Butterfly

i liked this movie a lot.. it was really sad how he became cripple at the peek of his career.
i didn't really understand the whole part when it showed us how he became cripple. he kind of just stopped the car and started to choke. it was a bit confusing but i could say that  liked the movie a lot.

The Greyness

As a kid my favorite colors were purple and gray.
when i took this i felt like i was a kid again. Being purple with grey background. the purple makes it happy but the grey dims it down making it sad.

The Sunset

This picture brings out a lot of color. It has different shades of red and orange. It shows how a dead tree can bring out a lot of happiness.

A Sketch

When i am just sitting there i just think what would everything look like f it were drawn with pencil. So i made a self portrait and made it look like it was drawn.
