2/23/2018 0 Comments Political Identity Piece ProgressThis week I began working on my political identity piece. The photo on the right is my original concept sketch, and the photo on the right is my progress on the actual piece so far. This piece is a design based on work done Eduardo Kobra. The piece will be a self portrait of myself, and I plan to split the bottom half of the face into a mosaic of the various skin colors and ethnicities. I also plan to draw the colors of the American flag across the eyes, and then create a mosaic of the colors of various country flags on the forehead. The hair around my face will be mostly my own, but I also plan to include feathers beads and other decorations from various cultures. I also plan to include various hair textures and a headdress in the background. I hope to cut out parts of the piece and layer quotes, images, scripture, and other things that I find are important to my political identity. This piece will overall express not only my political and social identity, but also the identity of all kinds of different people from all over the world, allowing me to continue to explore my love for all different races while also expressing myself. I want this piece to reflect the phenomenon of political socialization and everything that seems to build a person's social ideology. I hope that through this piece I am in some way to reflect some part of human nature and the depth of our connection with the political and social world.
