Use a basic 5 paragraph organization to reflect on the ways in which a single work of art has helped you understand art and see yourself as an artist. The Ekphrasis essay is a combination of personal reflection and analysis. You will need to reflect on a single work of art – a song, a movie, a recipe, an article of clothing, a line of haut couture, a photograph, a painting, or something else meaningful to you and your chosen field of study (Fashion Design). The piece you choose to write about must be created by someone other than you. Approach your topic from at least 3 different perspectives which may include, but are not limited to:1. Your sensory experience – a full description of your perception of the “object” including a close description of the object itself
3. Artistic choices you made that reflect your engagement with your subject. Be as specific as possible. What new skills did you develop in response to the object?
4. A historical or analytical view of the piece in the world of art – how does it fit into the world of its peers? How does the artist/maker fit into the world of her/his peers?
5. The significance of the piece from a social perspective – who else engages with this “object?” What place does this “object” hold in your family/community/culture?You will use descriptive, concrete, sensory language, research, and other narrative techniques to bring the work of art to life in your paper. To get a fresh perspective and to achieve explicit concreteness, you need to spend some time with your “object.” Watch the movie with the sound off, listen to the song for the bass line or the samples, play the game. Pay close attention to the parts, rather than the whole. Deconstruct. Take notes.Required: 2 MLA format citations for sources that help you achieve more analytical perspectives.The subject source is from the movie, After the Ball, staring Portia Doubleday.
