Week 8: 1: I unfortunately could not go to the art museum this past week. What I did do was I had an Interview with a company called Xero. I think my next few sketches will be about that, and I can kind of break down how an interview is somewhat contemporary. #ConArtInSitu

Week 7: 1. Prompt 1: I kind of viewed Anddy Warhol's banana prints as just something to be admired. I liked the for lack of better words little bit of ruggedness to the piece. It is just a banana and I wish I had a little bit more context for why the banana unlike other examples #ConArtInSitu

18. Reflecting on last week I got to see a lot of cool things that I enjoyed. I was wishing we went to class last Wednesday to get some cool prompts #ConArtInSitu

Week 6: 1. I thought it was funny when Chaz did this pose but the art and the color I think is even cooler. The description said it is using a Chinese school outfit and also one of the famous Greek statues. I think it is a cool combinations of cultures. #ConArtInSitu

14. Prompt 1: Reflecting on the art that I have seen, I want to just use my head and not actually go back and look at my Skeets. Something that has stuck with me has been the outdoor experience at the contemporary art museum. It was so alive and so dead simultaneously. #ConArtInSitu

12: Made it on the train with @the-admiral-f.bsky.social just in time for us to make it home. Today was amazing in terms of the museum. I loved looking at all of the sorts of native art and historical pieces. I am also happy with our excursions today. #ConArtInSitu

Week 5: 1: saw a bear today. It was pretty awesome. I think this journey to the art museum is a lot different and more fun than the last one. #ConArtInSitu

6. Unfortunately, I was sick this past week, so I am going to write and reflect on some of my previous posts. I am going to try to dive deeper into a few different places like the nature segment of the museum, the dumpling part, as well as the yellow flowers, and some week 1 posts. #ConArtInSitu

7. Prompt 1: I think we should first start with our thoughts, and that's where I kind of start. There are always naive responses at first, but everyone was once a child who didn't know their right from their left. I think it's good to be original first rather than just know right away. #ConArtInSitu

After reading pages 68-145, I have done a bit of thinking. I found myself reflecting on the idea of storytelling and metaphors to explain thinking. Adding a bit of structure and using precise language (even though mine isn't great). I think using more storytelling and metaphores #ConArtInSitu

7. Dumplings are a universal concept. Countries all over the world have their own rendition of a dumpling. In Poland, a perogi. In Nepal, a momo. In Italy, a ravioli. In Argentina, an empanada. They are a comfort food across cultures, something familiar and relatable. #ConArtInSitu

15. This series has now caught my eye. I really like the color and the flowers created here. They kind of feel dream like and just the idea that everything is kind of perfect. With @the-admiral-f.bsky.social and @skete-davidson.bsky.social who both were interested as well #ConArtInSitu

7. One of my area of focus with be t dumplings. As a person apart of the Asian community I was definitely drawn to this piece. Just looking and seeing the individuality within this large piece. Very excited to look closer what patterns I see. #ConArtInSitu

Week 3 1: Prompt 1: I think the choice of materials acts as a way to map out the piece. For my example with the plants, the different textures of the plants and the gravel it was planted in (s/o @zank-el.bsky.social for inspiration), for me, I took it as kind of dead but alive #ConArtInSitu

How to write contemporary art: This work just looks like a garden at first filled with rocks and plants that don’r require much watering. What it means to me is things can be alive but look dead. Why this matters outside the gallery is life doesn’t not need to beautiful to exist.

18. Back on the light rail with @the-admiral-f.bsky.social hope we are on the right one! #ConArtInSitu

17. This is my past perspective of where I was sitting. Looking back on today I’ve noticed three things. 1. Be present 2. Look around you 3. Acknowledge where you were and where you are now. 4. Sitting and thinking and being a little bored is a good thing.Today was a good day. #ConArtInSitu

16. This isn’t final perspective but the second to last one. Just another place to look at my previous perspective. #ConArtInSitu

15. Something I couldn’t see until I got to the ledge was that there is a train car there with spray painted graffiti on there. That is one of my favorite styles of art. I think a great take away from today is you won’t know what’s around you till you start looking. #ConArtInSitu

14. Now looking at the area out here I can see where I was sitting and the perspective I had. Yes there was some nice shade where I was but I couldn’t even see the sky behind me which is so unique today. #ConArtInSitu

13. Definitely a bigger fan of this area. There are more plants and even a cool rock. Definitely enjoy hanging out in this part and giving it more of my attention. #ConArtInSitu

12.This point of view is not as lively as some of the art inside but ironically enough it is one of the most alive pieces in this museum. I don’t exactly know what to take away from this other each thing existing has its own way of portraying what it is then and there. #ConArtInSitu

11. Looking across from me and referencing my previous post I see some one washing a window directly across from me. It makes me think about what is present for him and what he is seeing. Where I can only see behind him, he can see the building he is cleaning. #ConArtInSitu

10. Something about being out side is reminding me that you can never see the whole picture of what is around you or surrounding you. Just because something is there while you are seeing it does not mean that it will be there in a second from then in the same spot. #ConArtInSitu

9. Looking up at the sky and seeing the clouds reminds me of the idea of contemporary. They only stay in that shape for so long the only time you can ever see that cloud is in the now. #ConArtInSitu

8: I am chilling outside on the 3rd floor looking at the plants. Something cool that I see is looking at the reflection of the plants it is cool to see something from another POV while only the side you can see is in front of you. #ConArtInSitu

I have been pranked today and there are a few things going through my head about it. Is it contemporary? Yes, absolutely! I have noticed three moments in which I’ve experienced “now”. one is the surprise two is when I realized the prank and three was the emotions I felt afterwards. #ConArtInSitu

Week 2: 6. Hey guys just hopped on the light rail to MCA. Very excited to just sit and be present with art today. Haven’t fully decided what I want to sit with but I really liked the room with big figures last. I will probably go there. #ConArtInSitu

Week 2: Day 3: Prompt 1: Contemporary to me is something that is in the moment and modern. Honestly it is really hard to define in general but it is something that takes its own shape. It is a modern experience of texture and shape. #ConArtInSitu

Some might even call golf a form of art. It’s something that you practice put time and effort into. The art of your swing or the art of where the ball landing, and the nature around you. #GolfingWithJake #Skeet #Bang #DoubleBogey @imquacked5312.bsky.social

Get home first try #goared

Heard the traffic was pretty bad today so I am glad I took the light rail over to the museum. Hoping I can get home faster than my friends.

At the light rail right now. Hopefully can get home first try this time. 🙏 #ConArtInSitu

Thought this piece looked like Han Solo from Star Wars. Could definitely forsee myself being here next week.

Saw this block of Gorgonzola. His pants were pretty cool. @the-admiral-f.bsky.social

Kind of reminds me of what a school can turn into without a teacher in the room. I can see chairs flung around he room as well as a latter. I am a big fan of this one and I could see myself coming back to it. #ConArtInSitu

This one either looked like a vail or the rough of a water fall. Knowing the exhibit I think that it is probably like a vail for the moon. #ConArtInSitu

I am a big fan of these ones. Not sure the artists intention when making them but I thought they looked super cool and took a long time to make. #ConArtInSitu

This one reminds me of fingers. Not a big fan how ever it reminds me how creative I can be. #ConArtInSitu

This looks super comfortable to sit on. Feels like a super modern sort of bed. It said the names a bed for the moon and I don’t know if that really resonated with me. #ConArtInSitu

I’ve kinda decided that they are all kind of quirky and have their own personalities. #ConArtInSitu

Definitely like this one. Feels like the flower is kind of glowing. Just enjoying the art before learning the meaning the author intended. #ConArtInSitu #exploring #journey

Got lost on the light rail. Getting there is all apart of the journey though. Had a good time still even thogh I got lost. #ConArtInSitu #gotthebattlepass

Did not 100% resonate with this art. Reminded me of a dress which was kinda cool. I don’t exactly know what this means to me. #momapproved #orangejustice #imquacked #ConArtInSitu

Something I want to acknowledge is that food is a major part of my daily experience. #food #chickenparm #lovemymom

6. What is an Art Museum?, how should it look? how does it shape or frame what we see? An art museum is a place where people can go and experience art. It should look like how the artist wants you to experience it. Yes it does it shows you how to experience. #conartinsitu #Ilikefish

5. What is a Museum?, what is it for?, who is it for? A museum a place for people to go and appreciate objects in a certain distinction. Being art, history, or about a person. It is for the public display of knowledge. It is for those who want to learn and experience art or the past. #Museum #ferd

4. What is Craft, or handicraft, in the context of your definition of art? I think craft or handicraft is the methodology or medium in which an artist creates their art. #tookmeaminutetothinkofthewordmedium
