Just like all the examples in your reading and videos, I want you to choose an artwork from the Art Resources/ Virtual Museum tab, and create Formal + content analysis. What to do:
1. Choose
Go to your Virtual Museums list and sift through many pieces of art to find one that you are interested in (your interest should be both Formal and Content). Copy, Paste, Label appropriately.
2. Analyze
Part A: Formal Analysis (Use Vocab from 1.1- 1.9 and stick to 3-4 most important terms you are looking at: not everything you see) Part B: Choose 2-3 from: Stylistic, Iconographic, Historical, Biographical, Feminist, Gender Studies, Critical Race, Psychological. You will have to do some research here. High Level Analysis: Point out correlations between the different types of analysis between Part A and Part B.
You may write a Paragraph or use a List form. 3. Source
Provide Sources for your image AND from your research. 4. Reply to 2 others

Part A Formal Analysis:
Lines: Red Chaotic Organic Lines Run through the entire interaction creating a sense of question.
Color: Contrast with Colors such as Bright, saturated colors on a black background gives a feeling of being underwater and a feeling of not knowing. It also catches attention. Sound (now I know this was not in your book- but it is a sensory part of this piece so I will include it): Daunting, low base sounds reinforces being underwater and catches your attention as well. Part B
Stylistic: The style of this piece shows inspiration from pointillism and digital/ computer graphics. Computer graphics originated from Pixels, which is very similar to pointillism (lots of dots that make up form and color). The artist used a ‘sea’ of dots to create form and color. Iconographical: The red chaotic line, I believe, shows human interactivity as a contrast to the other symbols of life and disposable objects shown. The dots may also symbolize individuals collectively that make a big difference if flocked together.
Historical: Many scientific and historical facts are added to the work to support its main idea and provide information. Example: Historical data on Acidification of Oceans.
Psychological: The daunting, low sounds are similar of a horror film, reinforces horrors of our hand in the future of the oceans. The facts shown in White against a black background also catch our attention and show the seriousness of the subject.
