Mayan Ceramics is produced in the pre-Columbina Maya Culture of Mesoamerica. Its a reflection of their lifestlye and culture. They use paper, plster, wood and stoone for carving and what ever they can find to sculpt like clay. 

I really like the way the carvings in these pieces the different sizes and thicknesses. I like the designs, and the fact that they represtent something for their culture.

Negative Space

Negative space, is the area around and between subjects in a piece of art. Its a blank area where there is no detail except emptiness. Space is used for artistic effect for the "real" subject of the image/art piece. Its the empty and/or empty space around an object that results in defining the object. It helps gain attention and emphasize your main point of view in your art work.









The last three sculptures, were created by Sukhi Barber. Barbers common art work is a person in the meditation position, and sculpted into it is negative space. The artist uses shapes and designs, carves them out and the negative space around and in it, gives the design more of a pop. Emphasizing the emptiness.

How Private is Your Personal Information?

I find this video very interesting. Pretty much they show people that advertisements like, liking a facebook page, or checking in, can easily cause you problems. Like fraud. These people were so shocked and uncomfortable and they didnt know how it happened. And I feel like most people dont see that its so easy to hack them if they dont keep their info private. And I feel like this AD/video can help people become aware.

Dark Matter: The Experimental Motion Graphics of Joe Street

Joe Street, is a graphic designer in the UK.

Because he is a graphic designer he uses the computer to create his art work. Joe Street is very anonymus online, so finding info is hard. I like his artwork because it looks like an illusion. Especially his Dark Matter set.

I really liked the video in the link above, the sound goes with the movement of the piece, and it makes it more realistic in feeling like its coming towards you. It feels like your in actual space, and watching the stars do a light show for you.
I personally loved the fact that how the Dark Matter art work, is set up around things that look like its in space. Dark Matter Dynamics feels sort of like your in a spaceship or some sort of room, an antigravity room. The xp+sound feels like your floating in space.
