[Project #3] Something is Happening

This photo is composed of three pictures of the same squirrel. Because of the synthesis, it looks like a squirrel running away and slowly becoming transparent. Give me a feeling of disappearing while running.


I named this picture: "The Earth" because of the sentence "The stars are so big, The earth is so small." (McLuhan 79) I thought, if I look at the earth from the perspective of a certain star, The earth is such a small one.


"Professionalism is environmental. Amateurism is anti-environmental." (McLuhan 93) As an artist, the perspective of seeing the world is always different from that of others. This sentence gave me such an inspiration. So, I photographed the upside-down corridor, Try to find some novel pictures in life.
















“Because something is happening, but you don’t know what it is.” (McLuhan 105)


All these pictures and shooting experience made me understand that if I look at the world from a different perspective, I will gain a lot of different scenery and happiness.

Treaty with The New York Indians - Front (Photos from Gina Adams's Website ) "For me this discovery signified the need to educate people about the existence of the treaties, making it personal so that more will take up the cause of honoring the treaties." ---Gina Adams (Quote from Gina Adams's  Website ) Just like Gina said, if I hadn't watched her artist talk, I might not know these regulations and the stories behind them. People need to know these things. As an artist, turning these historical regulations into works of art will attract our attention. When I was attending the artist talk, I was attracted when I first saw the words on these quilts. Every quilts' color and hand-made words attracted my attention and made me want to read it carefully. Therefore, we need such artists to speak for the trauma of history.  I really like her "requirement" of vision for wearing Medallions. Hope that everyone who wears Medallions can abide by these rules and m

I Hi! I'm Xiyue Zhang, and feel free to call me Sally. I'm from China, a country contains profound and lasting history.

Also, my idols.  My Daily Life When I was in the primary school, my daily life: Go to the school, do my homework, and go outside to play with other children in the community.
