Is this a rorschach test? That was the first response to abstracted shapes using black and white as colour, this was my pre pre work and it made me think maybe I can never use black and white! But maybe I will be able to later on?
Second talk-
Actual Physical work is present – Love the space used and the shapes, they started talking about the idea of hard lined edges floating in the space and how it gives it a maybe surrealist movement? He enjoyed the ambiguity of the shape, but thought there could be more! Then after that deduction he gave me an idea that started with Abortion! I found that to be a scary topic that I am not sure I want to take on! So literally the rest of the day I racked my brain fro ideas and thought and how could someone see that imagery with this work? So I thought back to my original ideas of womanhood and being a woman and feminism, all which I think are not really what I am talking about! Then I started to think about How can I get a group of people to Love, understand and appreciate prints for what they are and not always trying to change them! I feel that it is my duty to make people understand why this is just as beautiful of a medium as painting is! And not ask the age old question, why printmaking? Though my second visit with a non FA member made me a bit confused with the whole Abortion idea it also helped me to understand what passion is! And what having a goal or a genuine feeling can do to a work and to the viewer.
