"Also Number 1"
The title is a play on Jackson Pollock's "Number 1", just a comment on his style in general.
The idea behind this piece is How it is easier to love than hate, but in the end those two emotions are strongest together. Nothing inspires hate like love, and nothing intensifies love like hatred of other things. It is vertical for the downward motion of this, hate being at the top, love in the middle, and a mash of the two together in the bottom. They have to exist together.
Clever title. Nice composition. Strong conceptual underpinnings for an "exercise." I know the top represents "hatred," but I still want to enlarge it and put it on my wall--is that weird? :)
ReplyDeleteThanks, and it isn't weird at all. I can imagine this or things like this on peoples' living room walls for conversation starters.
