Art AS Level help....?

Question

hey, im doing art AS level, and am onto my second project. I am doing the title "identity" and plan to use a pop art style for images. Im taking alot of inspiration currently from Penley:

The focuses of identity are current affairs such as global warming, war, 'yob' culture, celeb culture, and fame... etc etc.

Can any one help with some ideas, and routes to go down? thanks

Answer 1

do lots of research focusing on the purpose meaning and context of the work of other artists. from this take "inspiration" of a certain thing. for example yves klein, with klein blue, which was a colour he chose to work in because it represented everything and nothing, you could then begin to work in this colour, find a colour that has a similar meaning to you, or find things that represent everything and nothing and apply this to your identity, this is just an example but do you see what i mean?

remember to fully resolve your ideas, look at colours textures, shapes forms structure and link everything to other artists, preferably not astheticly more conceptually
