The Voice of Art

Image
This is my third and final action project for my humanities class called Rhetoric. In this class we learned and discussed different way of presenting arguments, ideas and truths. We talked about how rhetoric plays into not just campaigns and in politics, but how everything is a form or rhetoric. In this unit we focused mainly on the rhetoric and meaning of art. We talked about outside artists, who are people who are not part of the mainstream or the art world elite nor conform to the confines of the typical art form. For this action project we had to create a piece of art that related to a social issue of our choice that we felt that we had something to say about. After creating it we had to explain why we created what we did and what we were trying to express and start a discussion about. In the images you can see images of the two pieces of art that I created for this project. MN ("I Will Not Be Silenced" Art #1) 2017 MN ("BE YOUR OWN F**KIN HERO" Art #2
