Sad Pictures

April 30, 2008

Part 1

All of these images are pictures of where some kind of crime or bad thing happened.  These are all sad or negative stories.  Why did this person choose these specific events instead of other ones that may be worse?  I think that some of the irony is that all of the stories behind these pictures serve some kind of justice or somewhat work out for the better.  His perspective matters because he is the one that  is posting the pictures and the one that people are going to listen to.

Part 2

His perspective seems to be 3rd person because he is definitely not a person who is in the picture or story.  he is more like a voice or narrator from the outside that is presenting what happened in the story.

Part 3

If i was to write one of these stories i would probably take the same approach that he did by saying what happened, then giving something that is ironic or brings justice to the situation.

I really like the work that he does because it takes a old classic painting and makes it modern.  I think it really shows how times have changed and what the differences are between the old and new.  I also like how he changes the background because it adds his own style.  Anyone can put a different person in the pose of another one, but his original backgrounds really set him apart and give him his own style and voice.

1.  I think that these pieces represent represent how there is no piece in the world right now.  It shows a dove with crosshairs and a bullet proof vest,  which to me represents how there isn’t any piece.  I agree with the fact that there isn’t a lot of piece in the world now.  I think his pictures have a lot of meaning behind them.

2.  I think that graffiti is a great form of art because like any other art form it is a way to express yourself.  I think tagging a building is basically the same as graffiti.

3.  I don’t think it is that important because you can’t always use your work to persuade people to your views, but if it works then I think people should go for it.
