Peace Dove 2. Power & Equality i 3, Power & Glory 4. OBEY Star WarsSection A: Describing ‘Wisdom’ by Aaron Stern against the elements ofart ‘The artist has usilized various ranges of line segments and pattems in order to impact the feeling of serenity end innerstrength to the viewer, Firstly fay zigagged lines have beon placed proportionately ground the head of the Central Image. The configuration of the zigzagged lines appear similar to brain waves, Hence, by positioning wave-like lines around Yoda’ head, the artist is attempting to evinee shar ‘brain waves are everywhere and that wise individuals eontain strong brain waves that aze ‘colorful, or in other terms, specialized in different areas, Curved lines are also utikized to form smiles ard happy-faces, © symbol which delineates elation, eestasy and delight It has been observed that the artist decided to utilize and spray-paint complex geometrical values and configurations onto the artwork. The artist did not just randomly select shapes and patterns to bedeck and adom his artwork, however, 2 sense of salectiveness can be perceived through how most pa:terns ‘contain an azray of shapes within the partern itself. In example, the flower configurations comtain a series of kite shaped geometrical shapes bonded together in order 10 Formulate petals ofthe flower. “The actist has chosen and selected the color of red to express and impart certain feelings to the viewer pertaining te the concept of wisdom due to red’ color symbolism. Red is a color that symbolizes: pession, desire, stcengih, vigor willpower and radiance. These are che external qualiies a wise man must Pevessitate in order to become a tcue ‘well-rounded’ balanced individual, However, che soul of the art piece is painted (spray-painted) with a different color. Yoda and other significant prevailing patterns are olored in white intentionally by the artist. The artist wishes to convey and unveil the true values and {qualities of a wise man through the symbolism of ‘white’. White isa color which symbolizes: excellence, ‘purity freedom, innocence, completion and wholeness. ‘By fading the arcwork co black she artists able to avert the viewer’ eyes from the dull fading to the more lively and entopturing patterns dispersed across the Central Regions, As all these pattems are Commensurecely spaced evenly around Yoda’s head, the viewer would ten cedicate and direct cheir gaze to Yoda and focus on the captivating zones of the art piece. Moreover, the fading determines a subtly ‘ffectual endifinishing to the art piece as the red background color gradually becomes darker end darker fs the zone moves away from the Central image; hence, gingerly establishing a fine end to the art piece. ‘The cenwal zone is identifiably brighter than the west ard north zones due to its selective utilization of ecler tone. A bright central 2one provides emphasis and accentuation to the core and principal element of the ar: piece: Yoda’ and the words ‘Wisdom. Firstly, the overlapping of white circular parterns on-top of a dasker black bacleground enables the reular peters 0 stand-out and shine-out from most of the other patterns. This contrast between a brightly white partern and a darker black background introduces a high degree of depth and profundity to the are piece, The lighting ard values of the Roneycomb patiern enables the honeycomb hexagonal configurations to appear just Like real life; hence, prompting the viewer to experienée a real honeycomb texture and pattern. Furthermore, the wrinkles and lines in Yoda's facial expzessions also initiates effective ‘and captivating wilization of form as the forehead wrinkles and facial fearuces of Yoda which is drawn by zed background layers will influence the Yoda to appear as ihe is in real life and form Parterns and lines are all positioned upwards proportionsiely from Yoda’s brain. Although i: may seem as ifthe artist has utilized measuring apparatuses to separate anc) commensuretely position his patterns, the situation of geore:rical arrays contain a natural, casual and ‘un-forceful’ tone; accordingly, prompting she petterns to possess an extra-ordinary quclity within chem. The inecease in space between {he white Rower petal patterns also indicates the value of time and existence. As the spacing and size of the flower petals dwindle and increase, the petterns are attempting 0 convey that as one grow older, one will ‘produce wiser determinations aad thoughes due to experiance and coniact with living lifeOn the top left comer, yellow flower patterns are spray painted proportionately in-line with each ‘other in oréer to initiate and establish effectual utilization of dimensions and form. The yellow flower patterns were sprayed wich a slight taint of téaffodil yellow asthe colo: symbolizes happiness and warmch. By spraying yellow flower patuerns, the actist endeavors to convey that the spreading of wisdom is like a flowers petals for the reason thatthe petals evince unfurling and out-spreading, ‘The viewer will tend to appreciate the shine and gleam produced by the clover patterns once the ar piece is exposed to light due to che fact thatthe light will bounce off she clover patterns and move the viewers aye to the central zone of the art piece where most of the colorful and vibrant paiterns are proportionacely scauzred around the central image. ‘Semi Clzele patcerns have been sp-ay painted in the southern sections of the art piece in order to create movement and eifective utilization of value in the ar: piece. By introducing the patterns wich black, the artist is trying to conttast the black and dull southern sections with the bright and vibrant northern. rections ofthe arz piece. The artisr’s intention isto express the coexistence of good and evil or how a wise ran can slso have some weak and ‘lawed beliefs; accordingly, one must utilize one’s better judgment and Togical reasoning skills before believing any person whether the person is wise like Yoda) or foolish Circular patterns are also incorporated into the artwork :o differentiate the fading margins of the act piece to the more vibrant and lively zones of the artwork. The circular patterns are spray painted in ‘white and contain a diagonal manner with the inclination of the pattecns containing a slanted angle from the surface level. The cizcles are tying to express morality and the concept of well-roundedness. In order to be tly wise, one mast understand one’ self before even atterapting to understand others. The cireular patterns axe of spherieal forms, introducing depth ané dimension to the artwork. The ciecles are also shaped in a commensurate way in which che diameters are 12 of the radiuses. Lastly, the cieeular patterns are sprayed ento the act pisce in order to conuast with the black semicircles. ‘The viewers will offen aporeciate the effective utilization of color symbalism through the spray painted patierns as the central zone embodies a vibrant range of colecful patterns of bright values. Dominating the centeal zone, wave-like patierns are che elemental captivetors of the azt piece as these ‘wavelike patterns initiate movement and avert che viewer's attention to she central zone of the piece “Aecoedingly, the viewer receives more chance to appreciate and study the Central Image, Test and adjacent [paterns in order to discover what the artist is ettempting o convey through the pattern syrabelisms. ‘Maze black patterns have also been spray painted onto the art piece in ower ro allure and eaptivate viewers! gaze. This pa:tem contains intricate geometrical ferms which appears ro most viewers as a maze of labyrinth. The black labyrinth is spray painted with a darker color than most of the otaer patterns in oder fo establish effective fading for che art piece, The fading is comple:ed in order co provide a subtle and indistinet end to the art piece narrative which in retucn, moves the reader's eves back to the central zone of the art piece. The labyrinth will tend to be complimented for its effective incorporation of two ‘dimensional textures as the maze-like line segmenss will introduce depth and fusther dimensional vafues to the art piece. “The word: "Wisdom has been boldly imprinted underneath the central image in order to explicitly convey the symbolic form of chis artwork. The viewers will tend to appreciate the font of the text as the font has contributed significantly to the art piece. Firstly, series of slanted straight lines and rounded line segments have been connected together in orde> to formulate the characters of: W1S DOM. ‘The space in-between each parallel line segments are considerably wide and voluminous in breadth in order to thicken, emphasize, accentuate and generate hold characiers to appeal and attract the viewer's attention. In most texts, the line segments may continue onwards in order to provice a cursive appeel to the art piece. However, in this azt piece, the word: wisdom is clearly spray painted onto the canvas in ‘print’ form in order te minimize the distrections chat cercain viewers might encounter ‘The artist has chocen to deploy a unique and ‘un-common’ font to the art piece due to the fact that instead efurilizing enlibri or cambria. the artis utilines n mare scarce and holi-looking characters in order 49generate © epry painted stencil. The font aligns each segment of 2 character together through proportionate space in order to intcoduce depth and ensure chat the twe dimensional fonts are expressing sult dimensional values and views. ‘The color of grey has been wiilized to coat the text stencil in order to impart cer:ain feelings to the viewer. By coating the stencils with a grey shade, the viewers are attempting to convey and impart the feelings and concepts of imparcality, solidness and che stare of becoming detached. As most viewers will perceive the color grey of being dull and monotcnous, the cext will immediately move and transfer the ‘viewer's eyes upwards fom the text (which Is situated undemeath to the character), t0 the central zone ‘which ig full of vibra: and colorful patterns. By selecting ‘grey’ to fill the tex: stencils, the artist can also convey how the central chavacter, Yoda, is old end experienced due to the fact chat ‘grey’ represents old-age, wisdom and the characteristics of being elderly. Truly, it can be seen that she arcis: has selected intentional beld fonts and character leyours ‘with color aymbolism and mule dimensional values in order to establish the serene and purified atmosphezeimood of the are piece.Section B: Describing The Artist’s 4 influences from Shepard Fairey Shepard Fairey expresses is socially liberal political views ox peace, right, laws justice and crue humanity for all citizens of the United Staies. The act pieces contains intricate utiliaation of geometrical patterns, line segments and other sequential motifs, The frst pattern that will be discussed in chis analytical paragraph is the innermost flower patterns. Quite che contrary, space must be evenly divided through ‘geomzrical considecations in order to produce the rest effective ower patterns. Most viewers will end to appreciate and notice how peniaconic patterns and petal structures have initiated a boundary and help Pinpointing accentuation to the inne: sections of the central zone. Bach innermost flower will contain pointed leaf which is extended by a pentagonal configuration. Within the pentagonal configuration, black Jines patterns and segments divide the pentagen into ines and rays appearing like a seashell, Accordingly the dark red pensagorel stcuctures at each pointed zenith of the six flowers avert the viewer's concentration to the interior sections of the cenral zone of the art pieces ‘Shepard Fairey utilizes effective applications of color end vahie, Firstly, the blackness suzrounding the African American woman in Power and Equality delineates disparity and hardship faced’ by the people exposed (0 the encounter of inequality and unjust rights. African Americans in the southern united states are ofien encountered with racial prejudice and treated as inferiors' ro the other white men and women. Shepacd Fairey wants and wishes to stop this racial inequality in southeen American culture; accordingly, the Airican American woman in the cencrel image depicts Fannie Lou Hamer, a political activist that fougnt for social and economic justice forall Aftican Americans, Accordingly the interior of Fannie’ face is costed with light yellow spray paint in order to symbolize hope. Shepard Fairey is conveying to the “American people that Fannie Lot Hamer is hope for racial equalcy in the United States and that in order to attain crue economic, social and political power and equality, more African Americans should stand-up to the government ike Fannie Lou in order to bring justice back to the people. Shepard Faitey applies various captivating techniques to catch an onlooker’ eye. As an example, in order to captivace and allure viewer's attention, Shepard Fairey has determined to turn Obama's fave into a Clone Trooper's face in order ro blend along with the modern star wars tend. The central image is also extremely realistic, certoonistic and clecrs hence, influencing children and any onlooke:s to forim a bridge of connections and thoughts between the clone in this art piece and their familiarcies with star wars. Shepad Fritey intendee to formulate the clone srooper in a eartoonistic way in order «o provide a simplistic approach to the art piece and promote a zelatable censral image to any onlookess. It can be seen that the clone is atempeing to impart a simplistic feeling and atmosphere to the viewers. The words are also bolé, italicized in normal ‘ealibri' font in order so emphasize the ‘obey’ concept and express a message along the lines of It is extremely simple. Very simple. Just OBEY". ‘The most fascinating quality about these art pieces is the text font and the utilization of ext in order to captivate and impart cermain feelings co the viewer. Line segments and curved outlines have been connected cogether in order to form characters of the English alphabet depicting the words: (in exeraple) ‘Power and Glory’. The artistically featuces of font ane :ext in Shepard Fairey's artworks are enrapturing in various ways, The text are spray painted in a red color in order te provide emaphasis and accentuation to the art pieces for the captivation and allurement of any onlookers, The texts typically contain a more ‘straight Newspepec font syle which makes the text seem impertan: and prestigious, 1é can be seen that a tw three thin line dashes contribute to a segment of each alphabeticharacier in order to simulate « ‘New York Times’ headline font. As the tonic of green energy and ecologically sustainable pioneering is a crucial and important feature governments must consider, Shepard Fairey wants to creste an important mood and status to the art piece by influencing his art pieces to appear as if t was an official governmental document for the United States Government. In example, instead of expressing explicily the word ‘and’ between ‘power and glory’, Shepard Fairey has incorporated a diamond-like symbol which emphasizes the concept of sustainable energy by containing a flame-like icon within the diamond-shape symbol.Section C: Listing As Many Similarities and Differences between the two art piece(s) As Possible sms pecsunte cbr! dasa seein nce ra is noe re eaten ese ‘and symoolize the concepts of love, adventure, danger, alarm and many other enrapturing topics. s a Baruch cone rimewon of wee dearal scar The bacon aye cot ge an Te wth : tuunder snes od ne seers ccetopomptnoveren sa ueeprect . ce ee cadre eves os nd once re eerie eb oe wanes cere } recone 3 Geometrical shapes and forms sre usually interlinked together in order to formulate and generate distinct intricate patterns 4 in the adjacent sections surrounding the central Image.

Quite the contrary, there are just jeomesalpaterns in Aaron's artwork n ordes to nate a more subse and indstact narrativeSection D: Summarizing the similarities in narratives of both art pieces Red is commonly used as @ background color to represent activiem, hope, brighmess, importance and polities The predominating zed background coler tilized by both artists provice the viewer with the Impression that the art piece is impoctant and beholés significant value to che society. This subtly imperted impression will influence viewers to observe the art piece from a more universal angle and will be able to use the artwork as a prompt for political, seci!, moral and ethical discussions. Both art pieces also incorporate patterns and symbols of long-petal lowers. Fiowecs with long pointed pecals are regarded by the modern society as a symbol which evinces the spreading of knowledge and wisdom. By incorporating long petal flower patterns and arrays, koth arcics are trying co convey that the viewer's ole {sto spread the message of the art pice in ordee to educate the modern society and commerce a period of change. Line patterns and symbols also contributes significantly to the narration of the arework due to is various symbolisms, In bath art pieces, line create movement and implied texture which indistincily shifts the narvator’s gaze tothe centez zone ofthe act piece. In Shepard Faitey’s work, each art piece conteins its ‘own meaning and message: accordingly, the line symbolizes different things. In Aaron's ar: piece, squiggly lines convey that wisdom Is like powesful waves that ean reach out and drift anywhere to solve problems and prevent issues: essentially chese wavy lines delineate brain power and brain waves. Both art pieces utilize a character in Star Wars in order to generate a more relatable art piece. Star wars is a movie appreciated by various people around the world and is universally tolatable co almost every individual in the modern society. Shepard Fairey peztrays and depicts « pietuce of a clone in osder w signify that Andr: the Giant is as tough, industrious, brave and audacious like the clone troopers in the movie, Similarly, ‘'Wisdonr also depics a tac wars character prominent for bravery, wisdom undesstanding and cleverness sn a moral way. As Aaron's concept and message is how wisdom empowers people to act ethically and ‘morally, Yoda is the most effective symbol which will be easily relatable to everyone, everywhere.ersonal onions on the artwork and further advice/ recommendations for improvernent Section Firsily it can be directly identified that the artistic balance of the amwork is woo unstable and distracting due to the fact that the viewer will ind it extremely dificult to concentrate and focus on the ‘central zone of the ort piece. Accordingly, if the artist is to construct the actwork again, ic is recommended to position or orleniate the surrounding patterns in a manner waich will prompt the pattems to cause the viewer’ eyes to dsift and change course to the central zone easily. This can be accomplished by pointing any line segments and patterns to the central zone of the piece in onder to establish emphasis. 1, Tnorder to delineate and enable Yoda to shine out and flastrate more brightly, black patterns and any other dark line segments should be positioned at a 45 centimeter radius from the central image zone ihe artwork is 0 be accomplished again). This is because 14 of Yoda’ face is coated with black squiggly lines; hence, causing a contrasting effect for the viewer whieh in recurns, diver: the viewer's atention from Yoda’ face. 5. The text and central image is positioned in the seuthemn section of the canvas; hence, prompting the fading appeal to alter and smudge the text with the other fading elemen's within the southern margins. As the fading is completed in black color and the ext spray painted in dark grey, the reader Will expecience difficulties on reading and perceiving what the letiess mean. Accordingly, if this art piece isto be re-lustrated again, itis crucially recommended that the artists to lightly layout the four {quacrants ofthe canvas and mark the midpoine with a percilin order io initiate proportionclity. 4. The cenvral image must contain more spray painting emphasis than i's current appearance as the white is extremely faded and indistinct; henee, causing the viewer to encounter difficulties deciphering ‘What she central image rearesents. Accordingly, in order to make Yoda shine out than it’s current state ‘an advise to the artist during the execution of spray painting procedures is te hui or apply the white pray paint much more close: to the stencil shan che cistance he has conducted in his original spray paincing 5. In order 10 create and initiate effective balence in the art piece, a constructive advice which will stimulate and boost the act piece's effectiveness and procedure efficiency is to eliminate unnecessary pparterns ané repeat the elemencal and predominating patterns in order to create movement which will drift the viewer's eyes tothe centcal zone ofthe art plece. To conclude this evaluation, my personal opinions and thoughts on ‘Wisdom’ will be discussed and explained, Firstly, as a conclusive statement, [ have observed that although Aacen’ artwork is inspired and influenced by Shepard Fairey, Aaron's art piece is in numerous aspects, distinct from most Shepard Feitey’s art [vis the owenty first century and people must start :0 realize tht street art is not vandalism for the reason that the elemenis and principles of art are erabodied in every street artwork: It can be seen directly from Aarons art piece that street areworks can impart and convey various social, mor, ethical and political messages and thet as che world progresses, more creative methods of publie announcement, propaganda and persuasion will arise. Agron artwork, like all artwork can e completed differently in order to improve it's aristcal appeal. However, an improvement from the eyes of one man may be completely different fromthe eye of another. lence, wish to say that Aaron's artwork has inspired me ro appreciate street art and lookat street art feem 2 more positive point of view. Teuly, inspiration can be obiained from anyone, anytime and anything; oweves what realy counts is how you transform your inspirations into your own ereative and original work because someday, your artwork will be an inspiration to others. j : ‘ ' ; 4 : ' ' ' :Section F: Image Citations 1) Peace Dove By pe Fairey: y-or-fairey-inspire zbvm=k %2Fkathyan t=14574411086 aa ee ojeNEMASerrsh: MsSshrSicaM/LiBeSus-14ssuaS6uoo6s 3.)
