Topic: Talking Art Exercise
Talking Art Exercise (10 points): an ethopoetic exercise in which you craft a short speech for a human or humanoid figure in a work of art.
Select an artistic rendering of a human from any culture or time period. In can be in any medium and from any art movement, but don’t pick a rendering of someone it’s easy to find out a lot about (e.g., don’t pick Dorothea Lange’s “Migrant Mother” or a Frida Kahlo self-portrait).
Write 200 words in what you imagine to be the voice of that person.
As is becoming the usual, write about your choices /method. Why did you choose that person? Why does that perschoon say what they say in the way they say it?
