SF: museum of modern art.


The Museum of Modern Art was really intriguing and fun. I got to walk around with a little head set that offered information on any piece of work that I was interested in. Plus, I got to feel all sophisticated and all...contemplating the meaning of a painting.





The headset explained how these types of paintings are created for others to meditate on the precise colors, space, and lines that are to inflict a sense of calm, peace, and wholeness.



The Looking Glass: This painting is absolutely hands down my favorite. It's a collage depicting all the various roles of women and feminism. The struggle of balance between outward and inward beauty, and creating a voice and impact.


This sun painting, is actually a collage of hundreds of pictures of the sun found on Flickr. I love the effect of the depiction of the sun in it's different states.

I would love to own this beauty.

  2. aw, neat.
    I think I enjoy paintings...to a certain extent. probably not enough to look at them for hours and contemplate meanings, but they are nice. I like the one with the woman drinking...it's coffee she's drinking , I'm sure of it! ;)
