Using Empty Space In The Joshua Tree Ephany

The Glass Castle, by Jeannette Walls, is a memoir that catches an overview glimpse of the life of Jeannette Walls as a child maturing with her reckless family. Over the course of Jeannette’s life, there have been numerous occasions and events that she has encountered during the “skedaddle,” when the Walls moved from one place to another, that allude to her personal life. One example of an event that connects to Jeannette’s life is that of the Joshua tree, said in the beginning of chapter nine during part two . The Joshua tree that the Walls encountered was ugly and “looked scraggly and freakish” (21), which mirrors the negative toils and struggles that occur behind the scenes of the Walls family. However, the Joshua tree still grew through

Distinctively visual texts aim to manipulate the way we explore and interpret the images we see, thus affecting the way we make interpretations of the experiences we encounter and allows us to embody newfound various perspectives of the world.

“People only see what they are prepared to see” is a famous quote by Ralph Waldo. This quote emphasises the fact that the purpose of a text can often be unnoticed and misinterpreted by the viewer. Many people only have a limited world experience, and it’s the Distinctly Visual feature of a text which allows the viewer to gain a better understanding. Distinctly Visual texts use a combination of techniques to create and shape an audience’s point of view or interpretation, and visualising a text requires the responder to interpret all of the images presented.

Tree appears dysfunctional like the Walls’ Family, but under the dysfunction is the love that succeeds on hardships, like the tree. The tree that the mother spots in the desert is metaphor of the effect the struggles of life have on each of the characters in the story. Constantly blown by wind, the Joshua tree grows sideways, “Mom, however, thought it was one of the most beautiful trees she had ever seen”(walls,35). The Walls children can be seen as one of these trees, their lives shaped by the consistency of their parents' frequent moves and questionable habits. Jeannette tries to resist at first when living in New York. Not wanting anyone to know about her past or judge her for allowing her parents to remain homeless. However her attempts

Joshua Tree National Park proves the desert stereotype of being empty and lifeless entirely wrong. It is the complete opposite, as a matter of fact, it provides various species of animals, unique rock formations, plenty of hiking trails, the beautiful Joshua Tree itself, etc. It also provides solitude, silence, and captivating skies. This distinct desert land located in Southern California with an area of 1,234 mi², was officially named a national monument by President Franklin Delano Roosevelt in 1936 and became a national park on October 31, 1994. The park received its name due to the fact that it is surrounded by these spiky trees, which received their name when a group of Mormon settlers saw the tree’s leaves stretching outward guiding

Joshua Tree is a beautiful National Park to visit because of its interesting ecosystem to learn about.

The species of animals you may be able to encounter are coyotes, mountain lions, screech-owls, red diamond rattlesnakes, roadrunners, tarantulas, desert tortoises, kangaroo rats, and big horn sheep.

The three main images I have chosen were all equally unique to me and I found them to be intriguing to the eye. The commercial art of Betty Crocker throughout the year from Courtsey General Mills. This painting shows a timeline of the common looks of a housewife to appear. Steve Chambers poster of Math Rules! greatly demonstrates the many forms math can take place in everyday life. Lastly, Eva Hesse's photo of a studios materials portrays the objects can have potential if they have a user. I find these three structures to be fascinating and they each have their own unique attributes.

However. The use of space and page layout help keep the reader focused on the two main characters and the forward momentum of the

With a lack of white space the reader is able to be a part of the story. In Golem there is no white space, the illustration takes up the entire page. This makes the reader feel close to the action of the story. For instance, lightning hitting the clay and turning the clay into Golem (Wisniewski, 1996, p. 6-7) is particularly close to the action. The lack of white space allows the illustrations to be large and emphasize certain characteristics of each character.

I also wanted create a theme throughout that documents my work that was inspired by Berenice Abbott. Throughout my sketches of the architecture I put them in order and try to present the theme that I wanted to be created throughout, which was to give a sense of a journey and something that tells a story through a simple image of architecture. I found images that documented New York that I could emulate into a similar style throughout such as bridges and tall skyscraper buildings, that were there to compare the before and after of the New York modernisation. To get an idea of how I wanted my images to look I started to take test shots of images that imitate Abbott’s work, I then developed the photographs with Photoshop to create a similar style of Abbott’s documentation of New York. I found that these images were very similar to her work and carried on with the same style when producing my final pieces of

The Odyssey and The Ramayana both contain the theme of love with the relationships between Penelope and Odysseus, and Rama and Sita, but The Odyssey shows us a lasting relationship based off loyalty. Neither culture shows their love, physically, the way we would today. Emotions and love are very important to us in our lives today. I believe they are what keeps us happy and wishful. We see two very similar ways to portray love as well as two very different ways in The Odyssey and The Ramayana.

Most of my pieces have everything to do with personal inspiration, and ideas that I ended up coming with from either reference photos or my very own imagination.
