PART 3: COLLAGE (REMADE) Linneth.

Happiness

This emotion fills my soul in a positive way, crinkling my eyes and wides my smile, my eyebrows raise and my head tilts backwards. Happiness brights my face and is really easy to recognize.

 When I’m happy I get energetic and can’t stop doing stuff. Happiness is not an often emotion in my life, but whenever is here it just gives me peace and I get to find the part of me I’m missing. Happiness makes a presence when I achieve something I been wanting to, when I’m having a great time with friends, when I’m listening to my favorite music and whenim in contact with nature.

1 In order to show the crinkling in my eyes when im happy I cut one of my eyes in strips.

2 To show a wide smile y cut my face in two through the lips and filled the space with smiles i got out from magazines.

3 to show the raise of my eyebrows I used my eyebrows on another image and pasted them higher.

4 to show how my head tilts when I laugh y separated my head from my neck and aranged it to look more tilted.

5 to show the brightness I used makeup highlighter to create shine.

Art is always subjective.

Step 3: Create a Collage!

I choose Happiness as my emotion which I defined in the following way:

This emotion fills my soul in a positive way, wrenches my eyes and wides my smile, my eyebrows raise and my head tilts backwards. Happiness brights my face and burst my features is really easy to recognize in me.

 When I’m happy I get energetic and can’t stop doing stuff. Happiness is not an often emotion in my life, but whenever is here it just gives me peace and I get to find the part of me I’m missing. Happiness makes a presence when I achieve something I been wanting to, when I’m having a great time with friends, when I’m listening to my favorite music and when I’m in contact with nature.

In my collage I used some flowers I got from a magazine to portray better my purpose.

STEP 5: DELIVER AND CRITIQUE (Linneth M)

Patter:

Retro Patterns reminds me of an expensive and luxury life on the 80’s, a family home full of sexualized comments and women’s oppresion, This squared pattern for me is a wallpaper, and I can almost hear the walls feeling restless and opressed by a masculine figure. Dark and light figures play an illusion in your eyes, you can never guess what color is at the top and which on is at the bottom, its interesting the use of diferent grays that I can infer they might be really colorfull.

Texture:

This sand texture reminds me of my country and its meadows, it makes me feel nostalgic to that trip i did with my family to Coro, we threw ourselves from the sand mountains. i it was one of the happiest moments of my early adolescense. The way the lines look like they were sculpted into the sand is pretty amazing, It doesn’t look natural but is impressive it could actually be the way the wind move the sand around and ends up like this.

STEP4: LOST & FOUND FINAL

AMBIGUOUS

Gum Fossilized On the Floor: Looking for ambiguous things in the urban life wasn’t as hard as I thought it would, obvious and ambiguous figures are everywhere we look in streets and train stations. Especially on the floors! Sometimes you just have to be bored enough to realize there is fossilized gum from about 10 years just stuck in the floor.

OBVIOUS

Pollution on Domino Park: After a long day of work I used to take walks through Domino Park, sit in the rocks and calm myself a little bit, I realized that the humans pollute by instict and we can hurt our planet without even noticing. Going green and helping the planet its really popular on social media, but how real it is in real life?

For me this picture has a lot of meaning, as soon as I saw the glass with all the other rocks and being in contact with the water I thought that this was a perfect set for this project. Its interesesting how my face is also reflected in the glass while I was taking the picture.
