To incorporate all that I had explored throughout the last two years I felt it was important to start with a plan. I wanted to make sure I included things that had inspired me, mediums I felt best showed off my skill and finally, messages that were important to me.
Therefore I decided that I would:
- use my own photographs as they would be able to portray my ideas much clearer than images from the media
- to paint in acrylic as I felt my identity project showed that my strong point didn't lie in oil painting
- to include other mediums such as collage because I enjoyed using it in my Geisha project and felt it would increase the level of fluency in my work
- to paint using only black and white tones to relate back to my exploration into art history, in particular Barbara Kruger
- to include the Sun Logo somewhere in my piece as a comment on today's media
and finally...
- to show how feminism is growing and has already improved the lives of many as the Guerrilla Girls showed me
