Project 3


Story

 Victoria is just a regular student at Hunter college trying to get to class in time. However, not checking her email before leaving for school has proven to be a bad idea.

Museum trip




     For the museum trip assignment I went with the class to MOMA to look at the exibhits on the 2nd and 6th floor. Personally I was a little puzzled about what we should be looking for in order to complete this assignment, so I just choose 2 items that caught my eye.

     First, was this piece named "end of broadcast" by Wolfgang Tilmans. This piece features an enlarged printed image of TV pixels without a transmission due to censorship. Although I understand that this piece has a deeper important meaning, to me it caught my eye due to how similar it looks to a close up of fabric (my favorite medium to work with). The similarity of both mediums makes me think about how everything in the world is connected at some level.

     From the 2nd floor section, my favorite image was called "Chicago" by Harry Callahan. This picture features a great use of the rule of thirds as we learned in class. With the subject being in one of the thirds of the image and a space ahead of her that creates a sence of expectation. The wind also created a nice smooth flow to the fabric from her hat (which also attracted me to this image in particular).

     In the end I imagine that the trip to the MOMI would have been more relatable to the class subject but I'm glad that I was able to connect some of the media works in the museum to my own media works.
