TWO INSPIRATION ARTISTS

Since 4D art is a completely new medium for me, it was vital for me to research and see other artist's 4D work to take inspiration and begin a thought process for what I want to create in this class. Two artists in particular caught my attention as I thought about creating 5 different pieces.

Artist 1: Mark Patch








Mark Patch took a creative approach to 4D art as he created "A Colorful Dream." Patch wanted to create a large exhibition, displaying Van Gogh's paintings from below and the sides, giving the viewer a greater idea of what it may have felt like to be experiencing one of Van Gogh's dreams. I thought this was an extremely thoughtful and creative approach to 4D art, something that I wouldn't have thought of before. This helped me realize that not all 4D art is ugly, and that it can be aesthetically pleasing. 


Artist 2:  Sarah Sze











Sarah Sze is an instillation artist who often combines ripped up pieces to create a larger instillation piece. Her work is often filled with vibrance and color that sparks curiosity for the viewer. What I love about her pieces is that they often want the audience to engage with them as you walk through the space, wining around the different sections. While I have never assumed that I would create this type of work, I love how Sze combined 4D and aesthetics to create thought provoking instillations.

PART ONE: STARTING OBJECT

OBJECT #1: Flowers on mason jar  I use mason jars for everything, from food storage, to vases, to glasses for my coffee. I find them easy to use, multipurpose, affordable, and good for the environment. And, they aren't made with plastic, so  I don't have to worry about that affecting the quality of my food or beverages. In this project, I wanted to explore mason jars and their multi use process as I work to cut out single use plastics in my day to day life. These flowers represent life and nature that comes with sustainable steps.

MEASURING HISTORIES

Image
I come from a very minimalist family. Our home has always had simplistic and clean decorations with minimal clutter. And with this, we have always kept on to very few sentimental objects and traditions. However, we do have one yearly tradition that requires very little space in storage.  My grandma, who is 100% Swedish, passed on a yearly tradition from her mother and her mother's mother. Every Christmas, they would bake traditional Swedish cookies for all of their neighbors and close friends. And, she would keep butcher paper on the wall to write down recipes, make grocery shopping lists, and create to do lists, displaying it to everyone in the kitchen. After she didn't need the list anymore, she would tear off the paper and write down something new. So, in this project, I wanted to do something similar by displaying her recipes on butcher paper as an art piece.
