In the second half of the twentieth century, artistic movements made pushes in order to move beyond the traditional gallery space, changing the terrain of displaying and making art. An artist’s body of work no longer needed to reside inside of a gallery or art collection, and artists became free to explore other ways of creating and displaying work. In this vein, Andy Goldsworthy works sculpturally with natural media, and leaves the sculptures within a particular environment, often expecting his work to decay quickly. Many times, the only evidence of any art he makes is the photographs taken during the process. By more traditional standards, art of this nature is entirely contradictory.

Charles Burns’ Black Hole is a disturbing graphic novel written and drawn in black and white. Burns uses the black and white drawings to portray a sense of mystery in the story and also to show the nocturnal aspect of the book.

He pours and smudges food over models and even tries to add emotion with the food that he uses, he does this by creating things such as tears with tomato sauce, or makes the model appear with an almost royal appearance. Ostrer cleverly uses the food to catch the eyes of the audience and then pulls them into the mystery even further with their different expressions. In this one particular artwork from the Wotsit All About project he makes the person seem as if they are a chaotic masterpiece of royalty ruling over your feelings and looking as if they have power over you.

He’s created a circular motion in his piece from Melt and this pattern has carried out in a lot of his other art pieces as well, (Hot ‘N’ Cold Magazine. 2018; Gazelli Art House.
Hermione, who has non-magical parents, is considered a muggleborn, or in derogatory terms, “mudblood.” Those who are pureblood, or come from magical families, tend to believe that they are superior and more deserving of certain privileges than muggleborns. Characters like Draco Malfoy and Tom Riddle are so arrogant that they treat muggleborns as less than and use hateful language when speaking to them. This is similar to our society and the way America treats people of color. “Mudblood” is like calling a person of African American descent “nigger.” Draco Malfoy makes a point of calling Hermione Granger a “mudblood” the moment he sees her. In Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, he states, “My father did say this; it's been fifty years since
