New Project

Proposed Sophomore Painting Project:

1. I will create a catalog of visual symbols, representing identities on the following levels:
-Universal
-National (American)
-Local
-Personal

Universal
Visual Art, Dance, Theater, Music, Literature, Labor (male and female), the Sciences, Family, Friendships, Romantic relationships, Faith (cross, jewish star, Om symbol)

National (American)

American Flag, Bald Eagle, Statue of Liberty,

Local (Baltimore)

Lord Baltimore portrait, crabs, ships, fruit cart, rowhome

Personal

dredlocks, business suit, hoop earrings,

2. I will go all around Baltimore asking a variety of people to choose the three images that best describe them.

3. I will log all of the data and use it to make a mural painting that includes these pieces of identity from the people of Baltimore.


*more to come as i further resolve my idea!*
