I think it can raise interesting questions of the human form and what it means to be human, and what it means to interact with others

I like this question but I honestly it has nothing to do with the physical mirror only the sense of self and how we preserve our self and others which is topics I would like to get into but I think it is too board of a question at the moment  ]]> 2020-12-08 20:50:29 UTC https://padlet.com/taylett1/atxum6c4i0ptysjp/wish/1000059753 taylett1 https://padlet.com/taylett1/atxum6c4i0ptysjp/wish/1000097746 Kapoor started experimenting with mirror and reflexive surfaces in early 1995 his work would utilise highly reflexive surfaces of polished stainless steel. this forms the bases of my argument of us questioning our purpose and the relationship between us and ourselves and our views of others.

Its not until 2001 that he unveiled his "sky mirror"]]> 2020-12-08 21:03:01 UTC https://padlet.com/taylett1/atxum6c4i0ptysjp/wish/1000097746 taylett1 https://padlet.com/taylett1/atxum6c4i0ptysjp/wish/1000116770 This is  Anish Kapoor's sky mirror it incorporates ideas of exploration of nature and acceptance of our surroundings.

I think  with this I can discuss ideas of nature and exploration and acceptance with us and nature  ]]> 2020-12-08 21:09:40 UTC https://padlet.com/taylett1/atxum6c4i0ptysjp/wish/1000116770 taylett1 https://padlet.com/taylett1/atxum6c4i0ptysjp/wish/1000120997 I have found that Anish Kapoor's features nature though his sky mirror as an intentional bi product of his work, one of the only pieces of standing art that will forever change.
I thought that this could raise interesting questions of the evolution of the human raise, incorporating ideas of nature and our relationship with nature.

This can relate to my initial thoughts and ideas of acceptance and relate it not just to ourselves but to our environment and surroundings.
Furthermore, I think I want to add the thought of exploration to my questions as speaking of nature and the question of acceptance could also encompass our need for exploration of nature.

I'm thinking my question could now to encompass exploration to be:
How does Anish Kapoor's sky mirror demonstrate the human need for exploration and acceptance?   

So this could be related to exploration and acceptance of ones self and others and our environment around us]]> 2020-12-08 21:11:07 UTC https://padlet.com/taylett1/atxum6c4i0ptysjp/wish/1000120997 taylett1 https://padlet.com/taylett1/atxum6c4i0ptysjp/wish/1000340801 all throughout history nature has had many different symbolisms and meanings. the book Nature and its symbols details many different symbols ranging from flowers to animals for example. Ivory could suggest symbolisms of love and friendship being the ideal of loyalty and affection.

This helped me create ideas surrounding the meaning and symbolisms of what the sky can connote, ideas of exploration and encapsulating us as humans being surrounded by nature and us accepting this. ]]> 2020-12-08 22:49:35 UTC https://padlet.com/taylett1/atxum6c4i0ptysjp/wish/1000340801 taylett1 https://padlet.com/taylett1/atxum6c4i0ptysjp/wish/1000383338 I think its important not to focus on more than one sky mirror as the placement and colour can completely change the connotates and significance of the mirror, this one in particular plays more with the dynamic of man and nature living in harmony. ]]> 2020-12-08 23:15:27 UTC https://padlet.com/taylett1/atxum6c4i0ptysjp/wish/1000383338 taylett1 https://padlet.com/taylett1/atxum6c4i0ptysjp/wish/1000384222 This bloodshot sky mirror can raise questions of human mortality and human life.

I find it extremely interesting that slight changes to the mirror can change the idea and philosophies with the mirror which I want to play with.  ]]> 2020-12-08 23:16:01 UTC https://padlet.com/taylett1/atxum6c4i0ptysjp/wish/1000384222 taylett1 https://padlet.com/taylett1/atxum6c4i0ptysjp/wish/1000402483 I think its important to touch on some of Anish's inspiration to see how similar and different his ideas are to other artists.]]> 2020-12-08 23:28:07 UTC https://padlet.com/taylett1/atxum6c4i0ptysjp/wish/1000402483 taylett1 https://padlet.com/taylett1/atxum6c4i0ptysjp/wish/1000402897 Its interesting to see how Anish Kapoor's work differs in both symbolisms and aesthetically both because of the artists differing backgrounds and upbringings. ]]> 2020-12-08 23:28:23 UTC https://padlet.com/taylett1/atxum6c4i0ptysjp/wish/1000402897 taylett1 https://padlet.com/taylett1/atxum6c4i0ptysjp/wish/1000421216 in todays modern world thoughts of self worth and our self image are more important than ever and I think all art can be related back to how we view ourselves either if that's from the personal experience of the artist or from the society its created in. 

Advertisements like this is are not uncommon in todays climate and often lead people to having doubts about their self image and self worth so I think when trying to answer questions of self acceptance it is important to address these thought and advertainments. ]]> 2020-12-08 23:40:35 UTC https://padlet.com/taylett1/atxum6c4i0ptysjp/wish/1000421216 taylett1 https://padlet.com/taylett1/atxum6c4i0ptysjp/wish/1000472074 2020-12-09 00:10:59 UTC https://padlet.com/taylett1/atxum6c4i0ptysjp/wish/1000472074 taylett1 https://padlet.com/taylett1/atxum6c4i0ptysjp/wish/1000472436 I thought it would be important to study the mind and inspiration of Anish Kapoor to get into his head and understand why he creates .]]> 2020-12-09 00:11:12 UTC https://padlet.com/taylett1/atxum6c4i0ptysjp/wish/1000472436 taylett1 https://padlet.com/taylett1/atxum6c4i0ptysjp/wish/1000484329 2020-12-09 00:17:48 UTC https://padlet.com/taylett1/atxum6c4i0ptysjp/wish/1000484329 taylett1 https://padlet.com/taylett1/atxum6c4i0ptysjp/wish/1000486939 for initial research I wanted to look at different symbolisms that the mirror could hold, ideas of
