On my final project I wanted to make a 3 series piece, that has me on the moon, on some lava, and in a see through floor. This was cool to make, I literally went through many other projects before making my mind up that I wanted to go through with this one. This is also my artist statement

When going to this project my laptop broke, and a lot of stuff was lost, so I was really in a bad place for my schooling. Moving on from that was hard but I decided to just thug it out and catch up. This project really made me feel uncomfortable and it is because I don’t like being in videos. It makes me feel weird, this is why my back was turn. It even felt weird when cars would come by and I would be confused on what should I do. I just stood still and let them pass, they probably didn’t even noticed me. This project was hard not in a making it kind of way but what to do, how to do it, and how can I get out my comfort zone, without bursting my bubble. I did it and liked the outcome just pray it is not too late.

Project 4: This is still like a tree, I wanted to do something Like a Marina Abramovic, just plain performance art staring at this tree that I have seen grown and stay in the same place for years.

A hidden history by Roselee Goldberg is about the history of performance art. Performance art is about the breaking the barrier of canvas and paint to be a 4D manifestation of art. It is said to be hard to understand the history of it origins. whether it was started back in a time where video was not a thing. I see perfomance art is a type of world that leaves the audience in awe. Performance art is an art form that can. be captured by an audience or a video. Artist wanted to put a pause on museums and cause they wanted to make a new movement. The art form was hard to put in the mainstream due to critics were against this. Bauhaus inspired many artist to take up this new medium to make it a global phenomena. The other reading is called the other history of intercultural performance by Coco Fusco, this reading is about the history of public performance art. Coco reflects on her audience reactions through her western understandings. Her backlash was through the peoples opinion on the art form.

This project was really fun to me. I feel like I needed to tell a story that speaks to me and hoping others can relate to how consumerism is in short a dream worth buying whether it is a double entendre. Let me elaborate, the vender is selling the consumer a dream, while that same dream the vender dreamed of selling. I see ideas as potential manifestations that have access to the real world, yet only those who manifest their dreams get to live in the privilege. One person told me that the artist is not shy. I agree, be as outspoken as you can to be heard by people that feel the same. The process of this piece was fun. I enjoyed fighting with myself on what I want to dedicate this piece to. That was it, I just needed the right idea. The rest came in the process of the piece. The actual song was mixed and cut by me on pro logic, and the rest of the video was cut by iMovie. This video thrives on what it means to reach success and through these individuals that hit that pinnacle you can see the outcome that hard works does pay off. You ever heard of the 10,000 hour rule? Well this same rule applies to these talented people. They didn’t become successful though trust funds, luck in a brokerage, lottery, or even family money. They bring up why Phil knights company is so big today. Hard work and dedication is what this is. Buying a product from Nike brings you this element of win and don’t be afraid of losing. Same way Phil knight fought to bring his company up to where it is today. The sad reality is that it’s just a pair of shoes, and they don’t give you the work ethic that it takes to be the best you can be, rather it’s the mentality that comes with the product that makes you fly when you wear it.
