Tim Shaw Analysis

In Vergil’s The Aeneid, imagery and description of fire is used heavily throughout each book. It is sometimes seen in moments of love and creation, but is most frequently seen at times of destruction and rage. The common thread of each appearance is that fire is the catalyst that prompts the characters to make a decision or to further an action when otherwise there likely would be no change.

The painting Burning Rods, made by Anselm Kiefer is very interesting all the way around from the materials that are being used to the message it gives. At first glance of this artwork, it looks like a piece of trash on a canvas because what the media it has on it. This painting is made up of oil, acrylic emulsion, and shellac on canvas with lead, copper wire, straw, iron, and ceramic (STL). This is a very interesting combination of media with a finished result of a texture and flaky looking painting with a gold and black coloring. In the center of the painting, there are some columns. This artwork like other major artworks has some elements that help the artist with the message.

The author’s use of imagery also leaves the listeners crying at their misfortunes. To fully illustrate the burning, agony of Hell, the author frequently uses the phrases “glowing flames” and “Hell’s wide gaping mouth open”. This depict that Hell is very “hot” to endure

Fire and flames have been used as symbols by many authors. Fire is representative of Montage. He was a fireman who made fires rather than put them out. He was around them all the time, whether it was around a campfire or burning down a house. Montag and fire were

McCarthy provides rich examples of imagery to lure the reader in and to understand the secret symbolism of fire. He writes about depressing scenarios such as “the cans in the galley floor [not looking] in any way salvageable and even in the locker [seeing] some that were badly rusted and some that wore an ominous bulbed look”.(McCarthy 119) This imagery helps the reader understand what kind of situation the characters are in and how hard it

In the book Into the Wild the main character, Chris Mccandless, made a rational decision to exclude himself from human society because he believed that going beyond what his parents and society wanted he would live a happier life. Chris wanted to leave society and venture into the wilderness to find the true meaning of who he was. Chris Mccandless was neither crazy or ignorant to live off in the wild where there was no people or anything to interact with but nature. Chris wanted to find his inner self and not only was he a role model for kids all across the country but he also followed his dream. Even though it was selfish of him to leave his family, Chris Mccandless is not crazy because he followed his dream, lived his life the way he wanted to, and went into the wild to find who he truly was.

This subject matter is about one of the most under rated paintings in my opinion of all time painted by a very under rated painter whom is Tim Ashkar, and the painting is no other than Beauty of Color. The artwork is full of different shades of beautiful black women wearing their elegant attire along with exquisite heads dresses and simply luscious pearl necklace along with the ear rings to match. All of them have peaceful and pleasant looks on their faces with their backs straight wearing beautiful array of earth tone colors with eyes to match. It seems like they arrange from young to not so old but all of their faces are very distinctive from one another, so it’s very easy to see who’s who.

I decided to pair these two works of art together for numerous different reasons. First, I believe that they both represent the destruction of Mother Earth and how mankind is causing it; although, they both don’t directly state the purpose of the meaning behind them. This inference is solely based off of the title of the artwork and by observing them. By observing the meaning that I have inferred from Hellfire, created by Mawish Chishty, is the glorification of missiles and bombs. By observing Man Eating Trees, created by John Sokol, I inferred the destruction of nature because of the causes from mankind. The two shows how humanity is destroying Mother Nature and the unconsciousness effect people are doing to the Earth.

One of the most mysterious characters in the book The Things They Carried is Tim O’Brien. Throughout the book, we see countless of experiences he is forced to go through. From spending time with fellow soldiers to being caught in a mime field, O’Brien has been through a lot! While most of his experiences are pretty straight forward in explaining what happen, there is one experience O’Brien never seems to give a direct description of. This would be whether or not he has killed someone. At one point in the book, O’Brien admits that he has invented some of the stories he has shared, yet he still considers them true. When asked whether or not he had really killed anyone, O’Brien’s response is “I can say, honestly,

In discussing fire imagery in the Aeneid I will attempt in the course of this paper to bring in an analytic device to aid in assembling the wide array of symbols into a more uniform set of meaning. Consistently throughout the Aeneid, fire serves to provoke the characters to action. Action which otherwise it is not clear they would enter upon. Fire clears the way for the juggernaut plot to advance. Juno, first of all, described as burning - pondering (with her hatred of the Dardans) goes to Aeolus with the idea of sending the winds to create an under-handed storm to destroy the Trojans, at the sight of their fleeing ships and successful escape from the Greeks (I.75)1. Fire from the Greeks burns down

Unstoppable by Tim Green who was a co-valedictorian at Syracuse University, and he was also a star defensive end in the NFL. He played for the Atlanta Falcons. Now he is a lawyer and a bestselling author.

The symbolic meaning of fire is demonstrated throughout the book in many different fashions but mainly it is portrayed as a symbol of life and social order. If

The late American artist Sam Francis’ creative work and life is vividly animated in the Bechtler Museum of Modern Art’s exhibit “Sam Francis: Rapid Fluid Indivisible Vision,” on view now. The show was assembled in just three months by the Bechtler’s new and insightful curator, Jennifer Edwards.

It is interesting to view it from the sides and the front view, but the latter is the best one. It looks big from a human perspective. It is built on the wall of academic building 7 and it consist of several geometrical shapes, including a hexagon and various lines to give the sculpture its shape. It looks, to me, like a kite with a really long tail. Because of it being high and placed on the building, it cannot be touched or seen in the round. It also consists of nine smaller geometrical pieces that resembled stars at each end where the lines meet to form the piece. The panels of the sculpture were covered in a dichroic coating which creates the colorful lights mentioned above. The direction of the lights changes with the position of the sun in the sky. Each star is made of many different panels in a rectangular shape that help provide a multitude of different strands of light which spread throughout the

This was built and presented at Burning Man by a Ukrainian sculptor named Alexander Milov. This is both an environmental and sculpture in the round statue. The giant metal, wired statues are adults, while the inside of the statue are slightly smaller, illuminated children. This statue portrays two adults with their backs turned to each other. Whether it be a couple, friends, or acquaintances, the giant wired people portray adults that cannot meet eye to eye. They choose to “turn their backs” because they have too much pride to be the bigger person and compromise. While on the inside are child-like innocence of the adults that want to be together and play. They are more naïve and don't understand daily conflicts that adults face. Children are more likely to look past such things being full of hope and wonderment of a possibilities and futures to come. I believe he chose for the adults to just be dull, and dark to represent how cold hearted and hateful can be, or turn into. All the while, he chose for the children to emit a bright, white light to to show the peace, comfort and hope children have to give in this
