Week 4 – Art Activity – Zines




My zine is supposed to be more like a diary or just something i can put my anxiety into. This week and the next is starting to give me a lot of stress :( . I think this showed enough of my week. It's a little formal and short, but I don't really want to put a lot of information out on this. I think maybe I'd add an extra page next time so that it doesn't look so scrunched up together. I think the line paper works with it because I was going for more diary feel. I think any other zine I make would be just like this one, talking about how I'm feeling or how my day/week was.

Week 3 - Artists OTW - Alexander Fleming & Jerri Bartholomew

Image
       Alexander Fleming is microbiologists working during the early 1900s and is most known as the scientists who dicovered penicillin. Not only did he discover one of the most important antibiotics we use to date, he was also one of the first scientists to use microbes for art. He painted people, objects, houses, and actions on a petri dish using bacteria. His artwork below is a person, two people fighting, and a mother feeding her baby. I think petri dish art is especially difficult to do because unlike regular paint,  bacteria cultures are usually clear with a slight yellowish tinge to it.This makes it really difficult to see what is being drawn. You would basically have to draw blind and then grow it and see what happens. The only indication you have that tells the artist that they may be doing something right is the marks on the agar from the inoculating brush. Clearly he kept it up and got a lot better, which I think is very impresive. Jerri Bartholomew i...

Name your blog post: Week 11 – Artist – Choice

 Jason Mecier and Andrew Gorkovenko 1. Who is Jason Mecier? Jason Mecier is a mosaic artist that creates images of celebrities out of anything he wants, from bacon to make Kevin Bacon and even Honey Boo Boo from trash (although this sounds terrible, the mosaic actually turned out pretty nice. I wouldn't be offended if I was her.). He is quite popular as an artist. According to his biography, his work has been featured in music videos, televsion, and bought by many different celebrities.  2. Who is Andrew Gorkovenko? Andrew Gorkovenko is a Russian graphic designer that actually works as an advertising designer specializing in brands. While he does use other media other than food to do most of his work, one of his works that I saw that I thought was very cool was his TripTea collection. Here he creates packaging for different teas and uses the actual tea leaves themselves to depict each country.  3. How are they similar and how are they different? I think they're both ...

Week 1 - Artist - Spill Sesh & Lovelyti TV

 Spill Sesh and Lovelyti TV are both drama channels that talk about other creaters or celebrities who are  in the middle of drama or cancellations. They both discuss the backgrounds of these celebrities, then their drama, and how normal people are perceiving their drama. I suppose their goal would be to inform people of their favorite celebrities' wrongdoings, but I think money is a bigger motivator because of how popular drama channels are and how much negative attention attracts people. The difference between these two channels would be who they report on and their anonymity. Spill Sesh keeps their name and face anonymous while Lovelyti TV is out in the open. Spill Sesh mainly covers other Youtubers with the occasional celebrity while Lovelyti TV covers reality TV stars. I watch them in my free time or when I need background noise. These days, neither really seem authentic but I don't think any content creator is actually authentic. Drama channels have an easier time being l...
