Artist Statement Rough Draft:
Time Will Tell
The series focuses on the development of women since the early 1900's, however it also depicts how women have remained the same. The appearance of women may change but their morales and beliefs remain the same. The pieces focus on the change in fashion and cultural values but depict the same morales and beliefs. To depict this, I used the same model in each frame. Then, I manipulated colors, apparel, and the background to convey the culture of the time period. To show the consistency of a woman, her pose and thoughts remain the same. I see the series being used in the historical fashion sector.
Influential Art:
I was inspired be looking at the covers of magazines from different time periods especially Vogue and Bazaar. Each of these illustrate the woman of the time period and shows the change over time.
I am also inspired by old album covers such as Juice Newton and Barbara Streisand. They were fashion figures of the time and their covers depict these styles.
I am inspired by Andy Warhol because of his use of series and how he manipulates each frame. I am inspired by his techniques mare then subjects.
Technique
I want to incorporate the abstract photo manipulation technique.
