Space Assignment


For my space assigment, I was inspired by this artist, Adela Leibowitz (below), whose work I found in the 2006 Northeastern edition of New American Paintings. She deals with with space in a fairly simple way -- The foreground is closer and more detailed than the background. However, I was also influenced by stained glass artists, and the way that light shining through the piece affect how it is viewed. In my piece, there are three layers of transparent paper that create the foreground, middle ground, and background. the piece relies on the influence of light to be successful, without light shining through it, you can't really make out the three separate depths that are present.
