Photo Montage Surrealism Theme Idea(s) ^v^

For my Surrealism Montage, I was thinking about making a dream theme. I want to put as my background a stage (planning to take a photo of the auditorium stage.) And then in a faded font, I want to put my eyes in a surprise emotion as if I’m seeing my life flashing before my eyes. And on stage, I was planning to put most things I wanted to do as dream jobs. Like singing, nursing, musician, archeologist,  study in astronomy, actor, and being a cop. And adding a few audience watching as if I’m trying to achieve my goals.

Surrealist Artist Inspirations

The Tilled Field 1923-24



Artist Name- "Joan Miro"

Title- "The Tilled Field (first surrealist masterpiece)"

Date- "1923-24"

Joan Miro was born on April 20, 1893 in Barcelona, Spain with parents, Miquel Miró Adzerias and Dolores Ferrà. He is a Spanish Catalan painter, sculpter, and ceramicist. He studied in drawing classes in the private school, in a mansion, Carrer del Regomir 13, at a young age. Then he entered into an art academy at La Llotja and studied at the Cercle Artístic de Sant Lluc where he showed his work in a gallery. And after, he continued his life in art. He married Pilar Juncosa in 1929 and had a daughter, Dolores. After receiving honoris causa in1979, he died of heart disease on December 25, 1983.

Description:  Mostly shows animals together at a barn at a sunset. Very interesting of the animals were made and that part of the artwork has a shadow which shows that its during a sunset.

              Judgment: In conclusion, I think that Miro did an interesting job on his first Surrealism project. It’s little complex of subject matter.

               Analysis: The whole artwork itself is asymmetrical, most of the pieces were put there randomly.

            Interpretation: I think the meaning of this piece is that this is what shows what nature is like without messing it up with constructions, oil spills, etc.

 

Untitled 1992

Artisit Name- "Jerry Uelsmann"

Title- "Untitled"

Date- "1992"

                Jerry Uelsmann was born on June 11, 1934 in Detroit, Michigan. The interests of photography started when he was in high school. But due to poor grades in school, he was lucky to get a few jobs, which is taking photos in weddings. As years go by, he received BA from the Rochester Institute of Technology and M.S. and M.F.A. degrees from Indiana University which lead him to teach at the University of Florida in 1960. He mostly traditional equipment. And at his time, he was considered to have a “magical skill” with his completely analog tools. He is now retired from teaching and living in Gainesville, Florida. And he still continues his work.

                 Description:  The top of the photo shows an empty land and in the reflection in the water shows life with a full grown tree.

                 
                   Analysis: The whole piece is mostly symmetrical if you look horizontally with great lighting.

          
          Interpretation: I think the meaning of this piece is that nature is dying if we continue to harm our planet. and shows a reflection of how it would look like if we take care of it.

            
             Judgment: I thought that his work was very creative. This can relate to real life of what is happening now.

Photowalk 3 ^v^

I'd Rather Be & Partner Project x)

I'd Rather Be

Next year at Wrestlemania 28, John Cena will go one-on-one with.......me. Lolz i wish. I try to position myself like the Rock did and it looks pretty close. I had trouble with the skin tone because his is darker than my skin tone, so I tried my best to be close. This would've been an interesting match.

Partner Project

Here I tried to do something little simple, so I had my partner, Gina, to pose as if shes admiring the picture i made for her. Obviously I'm on the Picture.
