Grid

 We see grid Everday in our life, it's like a part of it. A grid helps us to see things in order and helps to define the structure of a picture. Personally, I love to use a grid when I'm taking photos, it helps me to frame the object more easily and to construct the composition of the subjects. 

As we can see from the outside of the building. I took this picture when I was in LA with my friends 3 months ago. After I read this chapter, I realized a grid basically applied to everything.

It can also be in the background. I found out that palm trees created a really cool pattern. 

A grid can also can define the structure of a picture. On page 176, Lupton and Phillip said: "You can construct compositions, layouts, and patterns by dividing a space into fields and filling in or delineating it cells in different ways, building irregular and asymmetric compositions against the neutral, ready-made backdrop of a grid"

Diagram

 A diagram is used to inform or to present pieces of information that could help viewers understand it visually. Let's take a look at the 2020 presidential election that we just had, these diagrams help us to catch up with the result and on the other hand, it also looks really pretty. On page 215, Lupton and Phillip stated:" a diagram is a graphic representation of a structure, situation, or process and can depict the anatomy of a creature, the hierarchy of a corporation or the flow of idea".  These diagrams help to have the information quicker rather than reading 2 pages to get it. I made 2 TikToks while the presidential election. I guess it's not my job to show my followers Biden was winning. But I was really happy to see that Biden was winning Georgia and it was such a relief!

Hello

Hi, my name is Princetin, currently I'm off-campus and living with my mom's family in California. These past few months are rough since I had to adapt to a new environment and a new family.  More context, I lived with my dad's for 20 years, and now I'm moving in with my mom. It's a long and complicated story, but I'm doing fine. Every day, I'm learning and trying to accept new things in my life. During the changes of this world and myself, I decided to film a lot. I wanted to capture my feelings, self, and to recall my memories in the future. Believe me or not, I picked Tiktok as my platform. With that, I think I'm in love to make short clips rather than editing a 15 minutes movies. That also changed my aesthetics and my style as an artist.  I didn't have a lot of changes to do Art this summer, so I'm looking forwards to this class so I could be inspired again.  This TikTok I attached down here, is a montage of couples of the last days I spent wi

  "Graphically, lines exist in many weights; ... as the path of the mark determine its visual presence" (Lupton, 36)   This quote stands out for me the most. I remember when I took 3D art with  professor  Meghan and we were creating our favorite shoe by wires. I didn’t really do a good job of creating the shoe. The more” lines” I added in, the messier the shoe looks, which at that point, I tried to at more “lines” to create the shape and the outline of the shoes. Luton and Phillips  said,  “the lines and edges create a rhythm”. In the end, I ended up loving it because the wires created the volume of the piece. It attracted the viewer’s eyes and  it’s visually pleasing.    Sadly,  I didn’t take any photos of my project, but I will insert some of the photos down here that look kind of  similar to  my project back then.
