While watching the Art 21 video Transformation, there were three different artists that had their own style and idea with Transformation. Art is about how people interpret their work but how does the artist come to these different ideas. They also use everyday people or items to create their artwork.
The first artist, Yinka Shonibare talks about how he tries to capture a moment. His inspiration comes from many different things but he picks many up from magazines. He also talks about how he was paralyzed and how it transforms his work. Transformation also has to do with where you start as an artist and then where you are after all this time. To see how his work changed over a period of time.
The next artist Cindy Sherman uses many women and how they transform themselves. They try to make themselves beautiful all the time. They are always trying new makeup or the more rich get surgeries. It is interesting how she made such big portraits. She just felt that she could make them that big and she did. It is intriguing to see how she dresses the women and the characteristics of them in her works.
The last artist Paul McCarthy uses many sculptures and is interesting because the other two artists did not really do sculpture. He works with his son on some of the projects. He uses many different objects and changes them into something spectacular.
