Project One: Week Two

Project One is a consecutive project that is due every week with the same rules. It is three pieces that are 11in x 17in. These three pieces (three produced each week) has to be based on one word that has a lot of meanings.

Week Two of Project One was due was August 31, 2016, this is what I produced and installed in class. The first three are the original photos, and beneath that is how I actually installed them in class.

By the time my class Image started, everyone was pretty tired so our teacher gave us 15 minutes to do whatever. In those 15 minutes I wanted to figure out a way for my pieces to stand out (not just rectangles on the wall), so I thought quickly on what to do. This is the first thing that came into my head and I could picture it perfectly, so I decided to quickly apply this to my work. Below are detail shots of each one.

Rhetoric

PART ONE: research I first started out with this project with research and figuring out what rhetoric is. Definitions: the art of effective or persuasive speaking or writing, especially the use of figures of speech and other compositional techniques. language designed to have a persuasive or impressive effect on its audience, but often regarded as lacking in sincerity or meaningful content.
