"Suppressed Spirit" is a representation of how workplaces can suppress individuality in response to the prompt Perceptions of Identity. Using my mom as the main focus in this painting, I wanted to use the bright colors and patterns of Roy Lichtenstein and pop art in general in order to compare how my mom is viewed at work versus how she's viewed at home. I wanted to find ways to show perceptions and identity through the use of color and patterns. This is shown through the dark colors in the background of my piece contrasting the bright colors in the middle. |
