The pillow’s meaning as the subject is for the artist to know and the person taking in the art to interpret based on their own lens of the world. your interpretation isn’t invalid, but it doesn’t invalidate any other’s interpretation either.
does art need to adhere to all these rules you’ve said? or are these simply your interpretations of the art.
you seem like bodies carved into marble and I think that’s wonderful. but it doesn’t mean marble should be only for that type of subject.
-“The pillow’s surface suggests softness, but without a counterforce, softness remains pointless. In great sculpture, touch is relational — pressure against pressure. Here, there is no resistance, no gesture, no human tension. Softness without subject.”
that’s an interesting point for sure, but I think aesthetic and warmth can come from the strangest examples. and I’d love to have one of these pillows because I find them interesting to look at. I also love the material choice for the pieces.
knowledge about form and material and lighting and what materials do and don’t do is wonderful. but none of it is needed to truly appreciate something.
-"The pillow is inherently charged with intimacy — it bears the body as its purpose. Again on its own, it is made sterile.
Any depth to the idea is forced."
oh god I don’t get intimacy from this at all. it seems that we just view this differently. and that is how it’s all meant to be!
-“Very disappointed thats what you think I’m asking for.”
I just meant that it doesn’t have to fit your view of the medium of choice and subject to be ‘good’.
also… do keep in mind this is on a meme post about thirst traps and images taken of marble sculptures from underbelly angles to make them appear sexy. lol
doesn’t have to be so heavy and serious all the time. the point of it is to make you feel.
