Caitlin Cox: Task 5




I was intrigued by the artist Yayoi Kusama and her fascination and obsession with dots. I found it interesting that she uses dots in her work as a form of self therapy. I wanted to make a photograph that suggested a repetitive gesture. The action and repetitive motion of drawing short lines on a notepad can be meditative. 
I found this assignment to be quite difficult. I'm not sure if it was because of the nature of the assignment, or if I just got stuck this week. As a result, I am not too happy with my execution of this assignment because I don't think the message comes across clearly. The image is also relatively colourless, where Kusama's work is usually very bright and exciting.
