This project of dada was one of my favorite projects this year. They all came out pretty different and nothing really looks similar to each other which made all of them unique. I love how they were all created in an abstract manner rather than a commercial standpoint because they're all different and stand out, there definitely is a difference between the two and its an awesome difference!

This project ties into Dada because dada has so many different things you can do to be creative and have your own form of dada and in an aspect there can be many different dada creations and they all turn out so unique that nothing looks the same in any photo by whoever makes it.

People make art because they create an illusion or some sort of magic to call their own, they can make anything into something amazing, unique or beautiful.

There are so many answers as to why people make art and this just happens to be a few.

Dada Chance Poem

"A Head Full Of Fears Leaves No Space For Dreams"

The outcome of this quote really came out to having no words but random letters, such as U, O, E, S, L, and F.

I personally am happy with the outcome of this because I did another one and the first one I did turned out to have lots of empty space and it just seemed lost and no real meaning of the quote itself, with this second one I made it has its own uniqueness. 

MoMA & Dada

World War 1 and Dada:

Dada is a conflict that claimed the lives of eight million military personnel and an estimated equal number of civilians, around 1914-1918. This was made into existence because it was made to prove a point, and that point being that deaths from the war made a big impact on the nation and by showing the dada movement there was a lot of attention being drawn to it to symbolize it.

Marcel Duchamp and the Readymade:

Readymades is a description from the artist and an observer of his own art and gave them specific titles, all art pieces had a part of them that were named readymades and that was what he was known for. It made all of his artwork stand out.

They change my expectations on art in a way that makes me want to see more and more to see how different every piece is going to be from another, every piece has unqiueness to it and that's what I like about his work  the most.

Here is an example of his artwork:

Chance Creations: Collage, Photomontage and Assemblage:

These Dada Artists Embraced a lot of things to do with their work, but I think the biggest thing that they embraced was the reaction that they got from people, and how the talk was around about regarding these artists and their artwork.

These artists took this approach because they wanted to see how much different people would compare and contrast from their work from before or from other artists creations and sculptures and having their own understanding of the creation of imagery.

Here is an example of the artwork:

Artistic Collaboration:

As said in this article the whole experience with dadaism has a lot to do with skits, pranks, and performances were all seemingly inane, they were rooted in the sentiments of a meritorious nature.
They were all thought of so that they could all be unique and have their own purpose and that is what all of the dada artitsts did.

Word Play:

Dada artists do word play so that there have text and speech free from the rules of spelling, grammar, and punctuation, The Dada Artists form their final pieces of  art  to turn the original text and forms of literature into abstract forms of unique art.

Here is an example of Word Play artwork:

Pollution Final

Pollution Final

My social issue was about Pollution, I chose to do pollution as a social issue because I have very strong feelings about it, I feel like it isn't seen as a big deal to anyone but in reality it really is. Anyone and everyone can chip in to make the world a better place by stopping pollution there can be so many reduced leaks of oil and gases being put into the air, and also stop deaths of innocent animals and people from not having damage into their lungs. People need to open their eyes and see what this world is starting to come to and put a stop to it to make the earth a better place!

Results of hope from these ads I made are so people can see the facts that are being listed in them and maybe by reading them realizing that they could make a difference to stop pollution from occurring.

The Target Audience is towards any type of teenager, kid, or adult whether its boy or girl because there is so many ways for pollution to happen and people may not even realize that they are causing pollution and there really are so many ways to prevent it from happening. 

My slogans are: Do Something Drastic To Make The Planet Fantastic!

No Pollution Is The Clear Solution

Along with some facts that I threw into each photo that shows significance to the photos purpose.

 My thoughts about my final pieces of my project to be honest dissapointed me quite a bit, I had all these images of great ideas to what I could form the photos into then I just feel like they kind of ended up looking too plain and didn't have enough realism to them, Regardless I really do have a passion to wanting to stop pollution and I feel like there could be a great way to do so! 

Some tips I would give to another person who is doing the same assignment is to really think through on what they want to focus on for the assignment and to make sure that its something they want to do and won't get bored with it because I myself was going to do Drinking and Driving but then I realized I would have more of a passion with Pollution and don't get me wrong I think Drinking and Driving is a big deal but it wasn't as much of a passion to me as much as Pollution. 

The most challenging thing in this assignment would honestly have to be when I was editing my photos because I had great ideas in my head but I couldn't set my thoughts to the computer and it just got more and more challenging to me and I would over think and end up wasting time on something I didn't particularly like that much. I do think what I did well on this project was how I didn't give up on trying to perfect my projects even though the outcome of them wasn't really what I imagined and they didn't turn out to be my favorite project I have ever done but I know that over time they can definitely improve.
