Analysis Of The Woodlands Man Shirt

The shirt sexualizes Native American woman. It displays a woman bowing down to a white man with a gun. This picture isn’t historically accurate either, in terms of clothing. Woman liked to wear long dresses, and were mostly covered. This picture depicts how Native Americans are portrayed on Halloween nights in modern times. Halloween outfits are made with the least amount of clothing, and this isn’t any different. The Native American culture isn’t be portrayed in a traditional light, and isn’t authentically being portrayed accurately.

Native American culture was a great influence on newly introduced western art when settlers first came to North America. Not only did Native Americans have their own style of art, sculpture, basket weaving, and other fine arts. Their artistic styles helped influence some European art and gave them a different outlook on not only art itself, but a brand new culture that they have not seen before. This paper will talk about the different styles of Native American art and compare it to European art styles and artist, as well as going into detail about how their culture influenced artistic styles.

On the Tipis they decorate the outside with pictures of animals, gods and the Tribal symbols. Each Tribe of the Native Americans has their own symbol. They make designs by painting by using clay and plants. Each part of the tipi design has a different meaning. Round shapes at the bottom mean hills and if they are pointed they are mountains.

This artifact is related to our project because it was discovered and named as footwear but more precisely a sandal. The sandal is related to art and fashion because it was worn for clothing and any type of clothing can have one kind of fashion. The sandal

I found this quote quite intriguing and full of new information. I was unaware that tipis with these beautiful drawings actually symbolized momentous events that concurred within that Indian’s life or with their forefathers. The remarkable markings varied from courageous battles that the person living within that specific tipi had fought in, to historical events that had taken place, like ceremonies, and other symbolic symbols that an Indian holds dear to their heart. Animals, like the deer and bear were also incorporated within these paintings since they were a huge part of the life cycle of the Sioux. I foolishly assumed that these paintings on the tipis were merely decorations to beautify the tanned animal skins and to appease the occupants

There is a lightning-struck tree trunk and a passing storm in this dark and relatively scary setting, but because of its healthy wildlife and bold colors, the condition that the nature is in looks more happy in contrast to the monotone-looking civilization. Although the right side of the painting looks dull and unexciting, it is adapted and cultivated for an acceptable human living environment. During westward expansion, Americans moved west to acquire land and thrive off of what they’ve made. Some components the right side consists of is an oxbow, cultivated farmland, housing, chimney smoke, ships, and cut down trees in the mountains that carve out Hebrew words, “Noah,” and when flipped upside down,

The need to create and construct goes far beyond what one can imagine. It is in human nature to be curious and to develop or create based on the observations of the world around us. In fact, shapes and patterns emerge in nature organically (Rudman 2007). Native Americans development of geometric shapes is still a mystery to many. Yet, by analyzing the world around us and trying to create based on observations and creativity leads into our desire to mimic nature itself. Designs and patterns on everyday life items were utilized by Native

This week while reading the Contemporary Coast Salish Art I was found myself drawn to Susan A. Point more than others so far in my reading of the book. I appreciate how Susan is inspired by her Musqueam tribe and her Salish up bring and how she can integrate the two (Blanchard, Rebecca, and Nancy Davenport, pg.25). Susan’s uses the traditional art forms such Salish form line, baskets, textiles, carvings and weaving as a starting point of her inspiration to create a renewed art piece retelling a story to reach her new audience (Blanchard, Rebecca, and Nancy Davenport, pg. 25). While reading about Susan and looking at her artwork two piece of artwork stood out to me “Seattle House Post I, state I/IV and Seattle House Post II, state I/IV” these

Within the Indian societies of the Northwest Coast, the raven tends to act as a symbol of both unification and nourishment being that it aids “[clans] by providing them with a variety of useful things such as the sun, moon, fire, and salmon” (“Raven Rattle”). The utilization of such a symbol by the Tsimshian tribe in their ‘Raven Rattle’; in which was produced during the nineteenth century, shows the standard to which the raven is held within their culture. For the reason that rattles tend to be extremely intimate objects in which is only awarded to those who sit high up on social ladder; such as clan leaders (“Native American Rattles”). Within the Tsimshian tribe specifically, the ‘Raven Rattle’ had held the sole purpose of assisting the tribal members in channeling a shaman spirit guide and also during

Giovan Sanchez Choice 1 The realization of Dr. Jekyll Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde all began in the great Victorian age where men dressed proper and assisted with great manners. Woman, of course were properly sophisticated and wore an array of clothing. The Victorian age is excessively divergent than it is today with the clothing style of this era. People were profound in their culture in England, many would associate in small gathering to waltz and dine in to enjoy a glass of wine. To Dr. Jekyll, this was all divine to him, nothing more than how society worked.

Featherwork is an Aztec art form where feathers were used to create elaborately decorated clothing, war shields known as chimalli (Fig 1). In Aztec culture, feathers were highly prized and were believed to hold special powers and magical properties. The amantecas had two different methods for creating featherwork art and it depended if the piece that was to be made was three-dimensional or a “painting.”. The technique that relates to the type of art that the Spanish were interested was a mosaic type technique.

The problem of families not being able to afford clothing over time can be improved through research and comparisons of the pricing and finding more affordable places.  The winter time is usually a financial burden for families that are not on the high end of the financial pole.  Winter time is the season of Thanksgiving and Christmas, but it’s the coldest season of the year.  Parents who aren’t financially stable struggle to purchase their kids winter clothes, yet alone Christmas presents.  According to the U.S. Census Bureau, a higher percentage of Americans are living in poverty. In 1993 and 2009, the extreme poverty rate was at 6 percent but by 2010 it had increased to 6.7 percent. (Snyder 1)  The percentage of very poor rose in 300 of

This garment, inspired by nature, instantly grabs someone’s attention. Instantly, someone can tell it has many natural elements: the floral chest and leaf pattern. The garment is filled with various textures and color that give it its calming, natural feel. The texture has natural elements of leafs and flowers that are emphasized by the bold lines surrounding the element. It even has colors that resemble wood with a pop of color from the flowers. With more thought, it seems as if it resembles woodlands with a patch of colorful flowers. It seems as if it carries out it its purpose. It has a woodland theme, looks unique, and has interesting textures. However, questions start to emerge. What makes this catch the eye? Why is it interesting? How does it work so well? To determine this, the garment must be broken down in the individual elements of design (texture, color, balance, unity, shape, form, line, variety, form, proportion and scale, symmetry, and space) and evaluated.

When I visited the Tampa Museum of Art, I walked around looking at all of the beautiful artwork on display. I chose a piece that stuck out to me and reminded me of the carnivals and fairs I went to growing up in my hometown with family. Choosing just one piece to write about was a difficult decision, but I chose to write about Carrousels by Don Jacot. This piece was created with oil on linen in 1992 and is 50x72’.
