MATERIALIZING NEW SPACE

        The lecture by Kelly Urquhart and Jaime Kennedy was very interesting. It is always cool to meet artist and figure out there reasons for doing the artwork that they do and what it really means to them. It was amazing to see their individual work as well as their collaboration work. I think it was amazing how they combined their different types of art into one and it turn out to be so amazing.
         Kelly's style of art was intriguing because at first sight, I didn't understand. It was an interesting painting as far as the color schemes and the shapes in the painting. It spoke chaos to me. Once she started explaining exactly what her thoughts were about the painting, it wasn't exactly what I got out of it at first but she talked about the chaos of the world. I'd have to say, her explainations took some time to register in my head because it was way more than I got out of it and it didn't all make sense to me, but I guess it isn't for me to understand completely. I loved her drawings, they were amazing!
        Jaime's art made a little more sense to me. When I saw his art, my first thought had to do with the advancement of technology and how it is such a big part of our life and how it puts some 'ahead' of others. When he started to explain what his thoughts were, it made a lot of sense to me.
        Their collaborative work was interesting. I loved the series about the birds and the construction of the upgraded wing system. The drawings were amazing. The nests were interesting. I loved the construction and the thought of having a modernized nest. The creativity of those pieces were amazing! The thought of putting digital art and actual drawings and making it look the way that their work did. Overall, it was a nice experience, it definitely made me look at art a little bit differently.
