Show And Tell

 I came across this interesting page displaying artwork of women mostly naked other than an object covering their vulnerabilities. The artist is a male which made me question his target audience or purpose in creating the art. The name of his page too is “h_rny.art” and the creator is Ilya Gureev. He has around 37k followers which also makes me question if he just bought followers and the instagram verified tag. He is a talented artist and the artwork is very vibrant and creative, however, the whole aim w objectively portraying women with objects covering them. Just thought it was interesting and wanted to hear if anyone disagrees or shares the concern.

    I had never heard of this account before. While I think the naked body has been proven to be a staple of the art world, this seems to have a different meaning. The body can be turned into beautiful works of art. However, with that username it makes it hard to believe that this account was made with the intent of beautiful and creative artwork.

    I looked at the Instagram account and I think his art is pornography. A few of his pieces are not bad. However, there are a few (duplicates?) where the female subject looks like she is not enjoying whatever activity she is involved with.

    Like Taylor said, the naked body is a staple of the art world, but to this extent I feel it is not art and more so lust. Also the name of the page being “horny art” doesn’t help it’s case.

A Heated Rivalry or Wicked Misogyny?

Image
 As someone who may hold bias to the extent that I refuse to watch Heated Rivalry, I think it's important to state that I've seen a couple of episodes, and the show just isn't for me. I've also watched both the Wicked movies starring Cynthia Erivo and Arianna Grande. Now you are probably wondering what these two media films have in common. Well, nothing to be exact, and I think that's the preface we must state first.  This isn't about the series/movies, it's about the co-stars, but first, here's a little context you may need to understand where I am coming from. Arianna Grande plays in the musical adaptation of Wicked and Wicked for Good, directed by Jon M. Chu. She takes on the role of playing Galina (Galinda the Good), she is a very privileged and self-absorbed young woman who attends Shiz University and ends up facing an internal battle of being for the people or wanting her personal desire to keep her bond with Elphaba. Elphaba Thropp (The Wicked Wit...

Intro/Post-Grad Plans!

Hi everyone, My name is Emily Webb, and I’m from Frederick, Maryland. I am a senior majoring in Digital Culture & Design with a double minor in Graphic Design and Social Media. I am currently finishing up my applications for Master of Arts in Teaching (MAT) programs in Technology Education or Art Education. My goal is to become a secondary teacher for digital arts courses. I am excited about combining my love for digital media with teaching and helping students develop both creative and technical skills. Outside of school, I enjoy crafting with my Cricut. I love designing projects and bringing them to life by pressing my designs onto clothes and other items. Creating something tangible from a digital idea is really rewarding. I’m looking forward to connecting with all of you, sharing ideas, and learning from your experiences this semester!  If you’re a senior, what are your post-grad plans (I know, the dreaded question), and if you’re not, what are you hoping to do after gradua...
