Which artworks make an impact or impression on me? Why?
These two artworks made the biggest impression on me because of their super exaggerated values. I love the strong light source from behind the clouds in the piece on the right. I also love the hazy sky and the eerie lantern light in the piece on the left. I was also so surprised to see just how strong of a contrast can still be created even when doing relief works such as the one on the left, as it was engraved into wood.
Which artworks do I feel a connection with? Why?
I felt very much connected to these pieces. being an artist myself, I love to create pieces with a strong color pop, strong gesturing geometry over a background with a muted tone. These two pieces were exactly that. I especially loved the light-weighted lines in the piece on the left and the camo-esque layout of the trees. I also love the balance between organic shapes and hard geometry in both pieces.
Which artworks would I like to know more about? Why?
These pieces were the most enigmatic pieces to me. The three-dimensional sculpture was odd to me because it was apart of a series of sculptures. Each with no solid start or end point. The flow of each form was unpredictable and each form had no obvious common thread connecting it beside color and artist. The drawing of the hooded sheep was mysterious to me because it was between two other installations from the same artist that included both sheep, and dogs and even one shepherd. I had no idea what this hooded sheep could have meant or why it was between the other installations but the loose connection i was able to form definitely helped this piece standout.
