I really loved Nicole’s piece. I wasn’t crazy about the outcome, but I feel that the idea was dynamite. The piece to me wasn’t so much about wasting time, but more about taking advantage of the social constructs within a culture or manipulation to create profitable experience. She took something positive, these gifts from strangers and turned the tables against them. She critiqued their work by destroying it. I love power struggles and find a subtle beauty in unkempt relationships.
Also I enjoyed the lesson on instigation. I appreciate the fucked up artist who plagues our societies. This lesson kind of showed me how different I perceive most art. I have always been very accepting of differing viewpoints and ideas. Most of the artists that I know or are affiliated with have a definite idea in their head as to what they consider art and what their limits are. I don’t think I have any limits. You can shit on my chest and call it art. I probably will call it art too.
