BW to Color

 


For my monochrome piece I choose my favorite color, purple. I chose a variety of shades from the darkest to the lightest. I like how the shades compliment each other and and make the piece really pop. 


For my complimentary colors I choose green and pink. The colors reminded me of gogort and the Fairly Odd Parents. I think the colors really make each other pop and make the piece very bright. 


For my analogous colors I wanted to choose ones that gave me a comic-book feel. The mix of colors in this piece gives me an Andy Warhol feel, and was inspired by this piece on Marylin Monroe.

  My piece is a modern recreation of the famous Rossie the Riveter poster, made by J. Howard Miller. My idea with this piece was to use its original meaning, boasting female moral during World Wat II and depict it in a more modern way. I took away the meaning of boasting female workers and instead used it as a way to convey the modern day problems women face. With Rossie being such a symbolic figure in feminism I decided to recreate her with the problem of reproductive rights women face today. The slogan "my body, my choice" is meant to serve as a reminder to all government officials that human should have unsolicited control over their own bodies. Especially in todays climate with things like safe abortion and Planned Parenthood are being targeted, I think reproductive and general women's health rights are at risk.

  For this piece we were suppose to encompass something new we had discovered about ourselves over this pandemic. While I did discover some things, I wanted to take a different approach and display the more apathetic feeling I have been feeling since the beginning. As the pandemic worsened it seemed like the days just merged into one endless cycle of doing school and sleeping. I tried to display the road into the cycle and how it seems to be never-ending. However I do believe that things will get better eventually. Which is why I decided to use such vibrant colors and hues to show that even in the darkest situation light will shine through.  I placed myself on top of the moon to symbolize how I am just a bystander looking at all of this. I feel like I have no control over my own situation any more and I am just peacefully watching time pass me by.
