unit 8 tutorial with joey ryken

The unit 8 tutorial went pretty well - I was pretty uncertain about the direction I was going in - and he gave me advice on categorizing what I already have. He also gave me good references: mike kelley the uncanny + an essay on disney & surrealism (mike kelley, peter fischli, david weiss) Now I just need to narrow my focus down in an angle/question... I do like the whole 'fragility of man' thing, but it seems too broad just on its own, definitely. I'll need to think on this.

  • mike Kelley the uncanny + essay on Disney and surrealism 
  • organising, putting into categories, 
  • ok to reference modern film 
  • productive to talk about technical side (how it’s painted) and link to theme but careful to not focus too much 
  • useful to think about you as a modern artist why I’m looking at these sources from the past. how it is today.
