This blog is going to be a continuation of the previous blog talking about sequential images. Reflecting on what was talked about earlier in class about some sequential images, I will be talking about some of them in this blog and trying to explain what the images are about.
The image above is one of the works of Jürgen Klauke in
1976 named REIN-RAUS. This work contains 12 pictures illustrating a man and a
woman coming together, meeting each other then there is a fusion between them,
after which they change, and the man is in the woman's clothing while the woman
is in the man's clothing. The pictures we really carefully taken especially the
ones of the fusion, the first fusion picture shows them undressing while the
second one shows them after switching their clothes, dressing up. The last two pictures below are just showing the before and
after of this sequence, the first one showing that the man is in the suit while
the woman is in the dress, then the second picture shows the man in the dress
and the woman in the suit. Back in the early 1970s Jürgen Klauke was one of the first
artists to use photography as a means of artistic expression to raise questions
like gender and identity (Jürgen Klauke, no date).
This is also one of Jürgen Klauke's works named
Formalisierung der Langeweile, made in 1980/81.
This sequence looks like a woman kind of expressing her
feeling with her body posture, she is also sitting on a TV and the TV is
showing different thing, I think it rhymes with her feelings, the pictures are
in black and white which make the sequence more unique and blends with her
facial expressions which are a bit dull.
Following the class we had on sequential images we also had
a task to complete individually about creating our own sequential image
2D 3D PROJECT
The image above is a sequential image created while in a 2D 3D class and the process of working on this project was photographed. The project is based on creating a 3D item and trying to use more organic shapes or forms rather than geometric shapes. As shown in the image above from first to sixth respectively, I started with cutting the shape I needed then started trying to form some kind of organic shape from it, all the way to the last picture where it was completed and photographed properly.
The idea in my head during the production of this shape was to try and get as many curves and arcs as I could possibly get.
