Ap Studio Art: 2-D Design PORTFOLIO 


Concentration: 

What is the central idea of your concentration?
My concentration is a series of drawings and paintings loosely based on moments and places from my childhood. I decided to explore time and memories through the use of borders, as ending high school is a reflective period. Creating these pieces was a way for me to spend more time with some of these events, and ruminate on the path that is leading me to my future.
​How does the work in your concentration demonstrate the exploration of your idea? You may refer to specific images as examples.
​
I choose to portray the idea of time by using borders to show that time can be more fluid than anticipated and that a moment can be in the past, present, and future. At first, I explored this concept with a loose border symbolizing times fluidity, as seen in image #1. I then extensively experimented with the idea of stepping in and out of boundaries, as one experiences with the passage of time. By image #3 and #4, I had realized that these boxes I had been creating were about ‘framing’ moments in time and tying them to locations. Both images, along with image #5 and #6, were based on places that are very important to me. In image #5 I represented a location that is constant and static in my life. In contrast, image #6 depicts a tree that grows outside of my window that is also constant, yet ever-changing. In image #7 - #10 I created undefined patterns and textures in the background of the boxes behind the silhouettes as a way of showing that even though the future is unknown, it is linked to the past and present. In image #11 I further investigated the idea that a moment is connected from the past to the future, by having the horse and rider jump through the frame. I continued to explore the idea of fluid memories in image #12 by connecting the past and future through a border representing the current moment.
