For my Performance Art piece I out on a white mask and put all white clothes on and went around campus to see how people would react.  The message I wanted to say was that Technology is a mask. You never know what your getting when your online or using any kind of social media.  People on there can hide behind a computer screen.  They can lie about who they are and you'll never know.  I got some really weird looks from some of the students, but there were some students that didn't notice at all because they were immersed in there phones which proves how much we rely on and use the technology that is made available to us. I don't know if I would do this again.  It is definitely uncomfortable walking around trying to stand out.  But hypothetically if I were to do it again id probably try to make myself even more noticeable which is strange to say because I was walking around in a white mask and all white clothes and hardly anyone noticed.  Maybe I...

There were several performances that I enjoyed watching.  As always a favorite is going to be Banksy. Ive seen "Exit through the Gift Shop" and thought of the graffiti artists from that story to be very bold and creative in there presentations of there work.  With many of them including Banksy going out in the middle of the night or at the most random times of day, they go onto roofs, on the side of buildings and billboard signs with spray paint and large poster size images to self promote themselves and there work.  The Flash mobs were so interesting to watch.  There were a few I enjoyed like "The Frozen Grand Central" performance where a group of 200+ people coordinated a moment to where they were going to freeze at the exact same moment in whatever position they were in.  There were several people all over the station filming the event.  Its amazing how much attention was drawn from just being still.   There was a performance called "Kagemu...

This is my Photocopy assignment. I used a little bit of style from Andy Warhol with the multiple colors and duplicates of images.  I was a little inspired by the Hindu God Durga, who had multiple limbs. I took my images into photoshop and played with the hue and saturation. I wish some days I had multiple arms and hands so I could multitask more and id get more done.

My Photo is a picture of me and my boyfriend.  I chose a portrait of us because i really wanted to challenge myself with the limited color pallet and see what I could come up with.  My Grid Art Project was done with beads and bead adhesive on gloss paper that is 35" by 35".
