Portraits at the crossroadNahm, Mi-Hee 22 August 2012 (has links)
This report is a description of my artistic practice and a recollection of ideas and influences behind my work. My studio practice has been a cathartic tool that I employ in order to relieve the tension and confusion that comes from living as a foreigner in America. In order to deal with my longing for intimacy and the lack of control in my life, I create small-scale paintings of my friends from Korea that are currently living in America. Even though the paintings have subtle differences from each other, they all follow the two rules I set for myself in order to enhance the sense of intimacy and control. These rules include precision to the source materials and maintaining smooth surfaces by applying many thin layers of paint. Through painfully close observation of subject matter I attempt to create a sense of intimacy in my work on small surfaces as well as to address the uncertainty of the future through my controlled process of working. / text

Portraiture : the self as artShininger, Soni January 1993 (has links)
The purpose of this project was to find out what it is about the self that deserves to be depicted in a work of art; what other artists have done in selfportraiture that may help me in my efforts; and what my own contribution to the history of self-portraiture could be. Self-portraiture is significant in its ability to serve as a personal platform to define the artist's life and relationships with society as well as other individuals. Many times selfportraiture becomes a visual self-search to recognize our own characteristics and traits that make us complete individuals. I investigated the history of self-portraiture as well as the life and work of six artists. I concentrated on the symbolism and psychological undercurrents present in many selfportraits. With my research in mind, four images were created based on preliminary sketches of myself and another close friend. The final images are watercolor, oilbar and sgraffito on paper. Two images are grid pieces and the other two are single companion pieces. The finished pieces were framed andexhibited at the Ball State University Museum of Art. The final images fulfilled all the goals at which I had aimed. They are visually exciting, successfully composed and well constructed. During their execution I was able to elevate the quality of my work, bringing it to a greater maturity level. This group of portraits also worked as a tool to put my life and relationships into a new perspective. / Department of Art
