Identity in Progress (cont.)

Okay, so after realizing that a matrix of squares on top was not enough, I made some for the bottom. I'll upload a better picture later. Maybe.




::edit::

I had class critique today and presented the piece you see above. I presented the idea that this painting represents a lacking structured identity juxtaposed to a plethora of unrefined identities. I thought it looked cool and I was content. Little did I know I was not done. Although, to me, it is aesthetically pleasing, there is a lacking concept in the piece presented above because it seems as if this torso is being sandwiched by heads instead considering the many possible identities it could mold itself after. So here is the new version...still in progress. This piece alludes to the self-portrait of 30 me's tiled together that I did last semester.

Identity in Progress.

The piece I just posted is mainly dealing with identity. I am still not sure which path I am currently persuing, but I am starting to grasp elements and ideas that interest me. For example, I am really drawn to individualism and identity but at the same time fascinated by the masses and reletivity. I love structure and the sense of stability while maintaining human touch, ambiguity, and spontaneity. I'll go into a deeper analysis when I post the finished product.
