I am working on my thesis project to get my MFA from Pratt Institute. My concentration will be digital art. It’s way different than design or painting. And I love it. I look forward to being graduated and trying to do this stuff on my own. The department is very technically oriented, and I am interested in focusing on pieces that are more conceptual fine art, but I need to know the technical. It’s tough.
My thesis project is called Artist and Viewer. The committee got caught up in the name of the piece and my “90′s” aesthetic. But I am moving forward with the piece. I have been focusing on the photomontage. Here are several small tests.
This photomontage will woven into a checkerboard painting. A camera will be embedded into the painting and record the viewer. The opposite wall will be video. Working on the code. So may directions to go in. I am glad I have the year.
