I have decided to move this blog in a direction involving Sociopolitical Art & Photography and the impact of the media. I will lightly cover topics that will be looked at more thoroughly in other blogs of mine, such as ethics
and art movements.
The primary focus of this blog will be to display socially and politically relevant art, mainly photography of mine - perhaps guest artists in the future.
Art isn’t always pretty. It’s not always about being a pretty picture that’s pleasing to look at. Sure that has it’s place, but a real artist works to show you or tell you something. I don’t care if you hate some of my work, or find it repulsive. And if you love it, great! But before my time is done, I want to have created a body of work that is significant, something that when you look at it it makes you think, makes you want to make a change, or makes you proud. If I can’t do that then I’ve failed as an artist.
I hope to cover various issues at hand here, I hope to inform, provoke thought and emotion, and to have genuine discussion. I do not want to see or hear about flames, hate mongering, and/or intentionally offensive comments. My intentions here are not to offend, though some of my posts may be offensive or controversial to some.
