“I Wonder...”
Post #83:��“I wonder” per Angelika’s solo exhibition poster (Scale/Proportion: Final).
1. Rather than forming statements or opinions, you should write questions about the work and what the show might be.
The advertisement for Angelika’s solo exhibition is called efflorescent. This term may be used in relation to flowers blooming. Therefore, it appears that this shows’ theme is based on flowers and/or a concept revolved around blooming (in this case, blooming could also be a more personal occurrence; the flowers might simply signify this happening within a person, a situation, etc. In addition, blooming signifies growth and this exhibition may be working with these ideas interchangeably.
2. Knowing what you know about the artist’s work, you should ask questions (look @ their Tumblr).
My questions for the artist:
-Were you inspired by any of your favorite artists?
-What were you thinking when you chose this color combination? Do you think these colors work well together in the order that you put it?
-Did you intentionally choose these specific flowers in your poster? Was it random or flowers that you know about and did research on?
3. Research the institution.
The Philadelphia Museum of Art is an exhibition hall that incorporates performances, contemporary art, sculptures, videography, and more. This exhibit may work in this institution due to the museum’s acceptance of various media.
4. What is the poster saying?
The poster is revolved around the theme of blooming and growth. To be more specific, efflorescent is described as “reaching an optimum stage of development.” This relates to the concept of something or someone blooming/growing/developing.

Post #82 - Scale & Proportion: Final.
Giuseppina Di Meglio. 2019. Fake Exhibition Advertisements (1&2). Digital drawings in Adobe Illustrator.
Both posters explore themes that I am usually interested in such as identity, childhood, creativity, colors, space and the use of lines. I primarily thought about how to express flowing and lively lines through the group exhibition poster. Paul Klee and Glenn Ligon are especially influential to this assignment; Klee expressed lines that showed character in specific artworks and Ligon explores line usage through many of his works (especially his neon signage and figures - there is clear evidence of linework [especially since language/text utilizes lines in general]). I chose these colors simply because I liked the combination - green, blueish purple, and pink (I did not connect the idea of childhood and gender specified colors given to children at a young age - it was coincidental). I enjoyed making the solo exhibition poster, as well. I made a happy little accident - as Bob Ross would encourage - and continued playing around with the gradient tool. I don’t quite remember how it turned out this way. I purposely clicked on the warm colors, but I am unsure how the other colors came about (which I accepted for this poster because I enjoy the visual overall). Guggenheim was chosen as the exhibition location because I thought it’d be a good idea to explore a series of space (in multiple media, such as drawings, painting, digital work, etc.) in an exhibition hall that is circular and round (which would be extremely interesting to see utilized with a space environment). I imagined having the stars and planets move upwards and a series of shooting stars circling each level. This was what I imagined when choosing the exhibition hall. Overall, I’m satisfied with the results. I enjoy the busyness of the group exhibition and the simplicity of the solo exhibition.

Preparing myself for critique day.
Post #80
I prepare myself for a critique by sitting down, a few minutes before or as class begins and talking to myself in my head to go over the type of feedback I need to give my peers. I review my objectives and goals for my own final composition by reviewing the type of vocabulary I should use to briefly explain my process and thoughts behind it. This conversation is very important to me - it allows me to settle down and prepare my mind to focus on the current environment I am in (entering our 2D class). That’s about it.
[Breakfast and coffee would prepare me a lot more, but I find myself skipping out on this most mornings..haha.]

Post #77 - Emphasis/Focal point: Final
Giuseppina Di Meglio. 2019. Lie. Ink, digital drawings, yellow ink, and Bristol pad paper. 11″ x 28.”
Interview/Critique:
1. What was the process like creating the work?
The process was challenging and fun. I enjoyed using digital and hands-on techniques; I used Adobe Illustrator to make the chalk-like lines and draw them out into a circular motion. Then, I printed out the same image; each panel is the same except that the next one is zoomed in a lot more than the previous one. After printing it out and gluing it out onto Bristol paper, I hand drew the figures with think ink pens. It was somewhat challenging to come up with ideas. However, music inspired me to think about creating these panels like a narrative or a film strip.
2. What were you inspired by?
I was specifically inspired by music that discussed themes such as identity, self-acceptance, self-love, and so forth. Thus, I decided to create a progressive emphasis through the figure represented and used yellow ink in hopes of creating a focal point in the composition.
3. What is your favorite dessert?
My favorite dessert (one of my ultimate favorites) is ice cream cake!
