Perfect figures

the idealised image of someone

women in paintings

The want to monopolise certain paintings because of its status in society etc.

The idea of monopolisation of a piece

Francesco Goya

ma1858j — 2025-01-24 01:18:03 UTC

The tone of the painting itself is something that has always been fascinating, the portrayal of raw emotions, linked with the uncanny

Francis Bacon

ma1858j — 2025-01-24 01:19:37 UTC

To correlate with religion, first looks with the uncanny and religious, the contrast between the two ideas. Makes the work more captivating.

selfishness

ma1858j — 2025-01-24 01:22:30 UTC

Capitalist and consumerist society encouraging the idea of egoism and selfishness

Self reflection

ma1858j — 2025-01-24 01:24:43 UTC

Too little time to see the present as there is a preoccupation of looking too far into the future

St Augustine of Hippa

ma1858j — 2025-01-24 01:27:53 UTC

Teaches about the reasons as to why evil exists:

to be able to appreciate the good
simply the deprivation of good rather than an actual concept
free will, god loved us so much he gave it to us

softer

ma1858j — 2025-01-24 01:28:47 UTC

a softer look in comparison to anything else, focuses on the direct looks at feelings and emotions and doesnt distract us from anything else

ma1858j — 2025-01-24 01:30:09 UTC

A more uncanny approach to religious art, displaying the different approaches we have today on the ideals of how we present the trinity

ma1858j — 2025-01-24 01:32:45 UTC

drawing a figure on display, preferably something that is socially accepted as an 'ideal body' . With a snake curling around and wrapping it. Showing how 'perfect figures' can be tainted or poisoned once a 2nd party is involved

display

ma1858j — 2025-01-24 01:34:52 UTC

displaying the work somewhere on the wall, becomes more of a spectacle that people analyse. The focus is now more on the snake rather than the figure itself showing that people focus on specific parts once a person in authority forces said audience to pay more attention to other details rather than what is the intended focus

ma1858j — 2025-01-24 01:36:43 UTC

Being able to show how 2 things are able to coexist creating a new piece

egoism

ma1858j — 2025-01-24 01:39:45 UTC

To try and expose human nature in of itself- trying to prove that you, as an individual, is always right.

isolation

ma1858j — 2025-01-24 01:40:16 UTC

To care about ones own motives rather than looking at the consequences of it

FIGURE

ma1858j — 2025-01-24 01:41:35 UTC

taken inspiration from magazine in the corner store, used it as reference for it.

snake

ma1858j — 2025-01-24 01:42:59 UTC

wanted the body to be more simple rather than outlining the intricate details of a snakes body, able to blend more into the figure as it almost uses the same style. A camouflage

ma1858j — 2025-01-24 01:43:51 UTC

Maybe adding more background, to make it more distracting so that the body blends into the background as well

background

ma1858j — 2025-01-24 01:44:34 UTC

using a texturized background to give it this timely look, in correlation to the artists researched

michael angelo

ma1858j — 2025-01-24 01:45:52 UTC

more specifically his sketches as it has this added tone into it, even with the simplicity of the mediums he used. Its still able to create a sense of atmosphere

ulster crucifixion

ma1858j — 2025-01-24 01:48:39 UTC

Ulster, or Ireland, as a whole has always had problems in relation to religion and war. Protestant and Catholic etc. Northern Ireland. Making The Ulster crucifixion piece more personal to the artist because of this long history.

The mysterious and religion in art

ma1858j — 2025-01-24 01:50:26 UTC

very interesting concept, being able to visualise the uncanny images in the bible itself. I.e. The description of angels, the 4 horsemen and even the burning bush. Images that would be horrifying to witness but because its all in literature, it doesn't conceptualise as easy to me, but seeing these in paintings would be able to evoke fear in certain ways.

Democratic society

ma1858j — 2025-01-24 01:51:06 UTC

Democratic governance- being able to monopolise different methods to dictate peoples lives- shown through religion

ma1858j — 2025-01-24 01:51:59 UTC

senses of herd mentality- being able to do things because it is widely accepted in the masses
