After reviewing the thinking and artwork of Julia Liu through her EMC2 website, I have generated the following questions in the hopes of providing a challenging new perspective that will help her grow and further develop her already-impressive project.
________________________________
When did you begin creating art? Why did you start? Why do you continue? What role does art play in your life, currently? Why didn’t you give your October collaborators a theme to work within? Why do you think it’s important to have a theme? Why is it important to have a distinctive style? Do you think that you’re work this year has helped develop your own style? Could a search for your own style be related to your theme of identity? Isn’t a sense of constraint also related to identity? What exactly do you mean by identity?
Why is art important? What is the purpose of art? What role does it play in the human experience? What is the purpose of your project? What do you hope to accomplish? What will your end product be? Why should the rest of us care (so what)? What does your art say about you? What about you made you choose this project?
Will you be using other mediums soon? Will you do any more digital art? Will you do a sculpture? Does a lot of practice in one medium or in one style translate into better skill in other mediums or styles? Could you do a piece where different parts were done in a different medium? What would that say about identity? What would your idea about a canvas of unfinished pieces say about identity? How can you show progress, beyond demonstrating better technique?
How have you addressed your frustrations and surprises with your October collaborators? How will you collaborate moving forward? How can your art contribute to other students' projects? Who is your audience/stakeholders? Is the community that you want to involve bigger than GHS? Who’s art do you look up to?
Do you find questions useful for your project? In what way are are questions useful for you? How does your project present an argument, a truth-claim about the world? What are you saying with your project? Why should we listen? Why should we believe you? Why do you care? How will your experiences with this project affect you in the future?
