I certainly had a lot of fun making this project, as you can tell. I have always been very prudent with how i dress, and undressing like that in a public place was very daring and liberating for me at the same time. It was mad hot outside, and putting on all those clothes was a completely crazy idea. But it went along with exactly what we wanted to express: Free yourself! When we are born, we are born naked, we have no ideas on our little brains; we act by instinct. However, when we start growing up, society and school start filling our minds with preconceived ideas of how we ought to behave. We start traveling with a lot of extra luggage. Therefore, by taking our clothes off, we wanted to represent that as you take off extra layers that you don't need, like prejudices, shame, "complejos", hate, etc. you are lighter and you can move faster and advance more smoothly through life.
PS: We chose the song "Inuendo" by Queen, because it fit perfectly with what we wanted to express and because we studied their work of art in class a couple of days ago. :)
I really like the idea of removing all the unnecessary layers of baggage and "lightening up." The layers of clothing were a nice visual representation, and I like how you were able to move faster and more freely as the layers came off. Good job!
ReplyDeleteI like how your performance attracted so much attention! I liked how your performance had meaning. Great job!
ReplyDeleteI think the words scrolling throughout the video helped to really spell out the meaning. I also like the way you shed your layers in a public place on campus whereas you put them on in a much more secluded area.
ReplyDeleteI really like the text as an added explainer, and I thought it was really funny the way the people in the golf carts drove by and those people were pointing to your clothes on the track. Great job!
ReplyDeletei thought your project was awesome! i loved it how it symbolized freedom :) i also loved it when you let your hair down --its so pretty! good work and great project!
ReplyDeleteThis was great, The symbolism was vert profound in this performance. I liked that you teamed up to complete your performance.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite part of your performace was how you ran faster as you took off more clothes. This was a great representation of all of the baggage that we carry around with us on a daily basis.
ReplyDeleteI really liked the concept of your performance art, it was funny to see how hard it was for you to move in the beginning with all the extra clothes on. Well done!
ReplyDeleteThis was really good. I liked the concept that you had and how symbolic it was. I also really liked that you had your hair down..it looked so pretty!
ReplyDeleteThis was a great performance in how removing articles of clothing can symbolize letting go of our inhibitions and defenses to prevent hiding who you are. Great idea and great job!
