    The student focused their curatorial rationale on portraying emotion through combining poetry and art, comparing past and present ideas. They were influenced by Jasper Johns' use of lines and color and Franz Marc's patterns and shapes. Their piece "The Bull" shows these influences, incorporating textures like buttons and rice to depict the bull's fur texture against an analogous blue-green background for harmony. They worked to achieve unity and balance across their works, having difficulty with scale but solving it through gridding and multiple attempts, such as with their largest piece "Across the Universe" depicting a crushed strawberry poster.

    CuratorialRationale
    I have focused on tying poetry to art to portray emotion, especially the works of Shel Silverstein and Robert Frost.
    My second year I changed my theme to old versus new and I compared past political ideas and social problems to
    today. I chose these themes because I found it interesting how literature and art can combine to portray emotions
    and how rapidly the world around us is changing and progressing.
    The prominent elements and principles in my work are the use of lines, color, value, emphasis and patterns. These
    have been formed and molded over time but where influenced most by Jasper Johns and Franz Marc. Johns use of
    lines and color inspired me and Marcs use of patterns and geometric shapes also played a role in forming my artist
    style.
    My piece The Bull clearly shows these influences and techniques. I looked at some bull sketches done by Pablo
    Picasso as well as by Franz Marc. I incorporated textural elements I used buttons, rice and feathers to express the
    variations in the texture of the bulls fur, and used sequins in the background to give the piece a mosaic feel, and to
    keep the work balanced. I kept the color scheme of the background analogous, using blues and greens to create a
    feeling of harmony and making the bull brown so that he blended in with the earth tones.
    think the strongest parts of my works are the unity they all portray. I worked hard to make sure there was balance in
    all aspects of the pieces. I had difficulties most with the scale and dimensions of my work, but I solved this through
    gridding and many attempts. My piece Across the Universe is the best example of this, as it was by far the largest
    piece I made and I couldnt get the composition to work the way I thought it should. It is an attempt to make a
    poster for the movie Across the Universe, inspired by the real poster which showed the couple inside the outline of
    a strawberry (as in Strawberry Fields Forever). I wanted to change the mood of the poster from hopeful to
    hopeless, and so I depicted the strawberry as having been crushed and dripping with juice. I used a stark grey
    background so the colors were more graphic and stood out.
