final_the dignity of panties

My final project is based on how society has become to accept nudity, which was once claimed as an immoral act. I connected fruit with to the context of panties. Women have took began to take advantage of events that draw attention to their physicality by making them a tribute to their appeal. The fruit is used within the comps to draw attention to the woman's private areas.

Women desiring to appeal to men in our culture relates to eve’s aim to tempt Adam with the apple. Religions are known to give limits for women. In the story of Adam and Eve, God punishes Eve for picking an apple. After breaking down my reasoning for my concept in words, the class decided to use that approach in my storyboard. In the beginning of my storyline, it starts with figures in the form of bathroom symbols. In an interrogation room, this type of female figure comes in handcuffed, wanting to tell her story for a new trial. She is not identified with an individual form because she stands for all women. She starts her explanation that her punishment is too harsh for what she did by narrating the beginning of the day her and Adam were in the garden. After tempting Adam with the apple, apples fall down knocking her down. One apple lands on her crotch embarrassing her and causing her to cover it with leaves. It breaks off from the Adam and Eve scene to a young girl-playing ball with boys, were she later falls and reveals her underwear. The movie then moves to more scenes, referring to a woman’s past experience. In each scene, she is competing with a guy or for a guy and falls revealing underwear resulting to her failure. Her panties come symbolic to the apple.

10/31/07 critique

After discussion today I decided to choose idea 1. However, I will not be dealing with an international concept. Instead I will relate to a western ideology only. As an artist I am suppose to have my work have some personal connect and still have concern for the general public. I feel like significant art can be created without logic. At the end of the presentation I mentioned how I feel about women belonging to men and my opinion on verse 3:16 from genesis. Basically I disagree with the inequality between genders to be a balance, but religiously I fear to disagree. To me I can relate my distress to disagree directly to expectations of my upraising. Again, I am able to connect religion’s dictation of women to women’s self- objectification for men. In my storyline I will launch from eve’s aim to tempt Adam with apple to women’s attempt to lure men with their sexuality. At the end our game of temptation only makes us game pieces to throw around leaving us controlled by men.
Idea 1

I want to connect genesis 3:16 where Eve is told to belong to man after she picks the apple to how women are recognized as the dependent sex in different cultures. In the story line, it will start out with eve picking the apple and the apple will turn into a graph of the world. I will then create illustrated clippings to support my idea from different cultures. The storyline ends where even takes a bit of the apple and passes it to Adam for a kiss, referring to women as being the “reason for man’s faults.”

Idea 2

I want to concentrate on the ideal American woman. In this storyline, I will begin with a woman window-shopping where she comes along a wall of televisions. She begins watching documentation for men to coach their wives. The movie is a brainwashing technique and she walks away like a “stepford” wife.

Idea 3

In this concept, I will demonstrate a girl’s seek for happiness with love and connect her reasoning with fairy tales. She will take a journey that will duplicate many tales into one where she finds happiness with her prince charming. In this composition, like the others I want the style to be similar to Saul Bass. However, this one will be more like a fantasy

“She supports the World with Sex by giving Them a taste of her big Apple.”

“She supports the World with Sex by giving Them a taste of her big Apple.”

With my sentence I blended the story of Adam and Eve with the apple to the economic value of “The Big Apple” of New York. A vast amount of foreigners enter the nation for our culture support of reproduction. The more children you have the more benefits you get. America’s mix of origins allows men to have a variety to choose from. Therefore, like the economic value of New York City, women have an impact on their nation’s economy. I used red. blue, and white as the three dominate colors throughout the composition. I wanted the colors to allow the viewer to relate to American, but at the same time instruct them to view women’s sexuality as a necessity of the world’s economy.
