Bloc Party - Pop Art


by Pat Rancourt and Taylor MacPhail

Unit One Summative



a. The images I used can be both indexical and iconic. An example of an iconic image in my piece could be the polar bear. When we see this image we associate it with the arctic and potentially the melting ice issue. An example of indexical is the image of the vast expanse of ocean on the top right corner. When we see the image we don’t immediately know its water, there is nothing telling us exactly what it is but we can put the facts together in out head and realize that is an ocean freckled with coral reefs.
b. I think a very important part of my piece is the fact that it is all blended together; you cannot see where one image ends and another one starts. I also made everything outside of the picture in a picture one color, which also helps to blend it all together. I think that this represents how nature is all connected, the entire earth works together to create a living working masterpiece.
