QOTW#9

What shifts have occurred in your work?

• Definitely a lot, more personal. I used to draw characters I made up from media i enjoyed, especially cartoons. I would create my own characters, and to this day i still do this. Personally a shift is my work is more emotional than it used to be, personal and internal emotions are put into some of my works.

How do the social identities of the artist relate to the work of art they create?

• i feel like it ultimately depends on the artist themself, and what their views and personal beliefs are. I know an artist online who is feminist, and another who just draws because they are bored. Definitely depends on the person but i feel like some let social identities main their work while others don’t

“How do history and the passage of time affect the meaning of an artwork?”

I think that as humans we tend to look back on the pass to reflect on the present and maybe on the future. So I think people look on art through the history to connect or compare how their art would be right now. And as the time changes and events happen we look at art or things differently. The experience definitely has to do with it and the more experience you had as in the more time passes you know that you look at things differently.

“In what ways can art be political?What does political art look and sound like?”

It can be political by what you draw or behind the message. In a way I think art is political and I don't mean political like politics and government and stuff but political as an intellectual. We can also make part about political matters, I mentioned earlier in one of my questions about black life matters and that is a political issue and we can make art on that as a PSA.
