I am filipino and Indian, I know it's such a weird, but AWESOME mix. My family is the most important thing to me in the whole world. I feel like they are enough to define me. My father is from India, and he was born and raised there. My mother was born and raised in the Philippines. I took my first breath on August 8 1992, in the Philippines, but two short years later I was moved to India to live there for five years. I came to the USA when I was 7 years old, and that is when my life started to take shape, but I never want to loose sight of where I came from.

Collage
Well, I tried to make a theme here. The left side is my father's side, and the right is my mothers.

I was wondering whether this was Jesus or not.. I'm not sure... I don't really get this one. :/
Okay, MJ, nuff said..
This was possibly the coolest piece of artwork, I've EVER seen in my life. When I read the caption for this, it said this is made out of steel! Imagine if this thing fell, I feel like it would cause a little earthquake.. HAHA
So simple, but so confusing...
Didn't really understand this one, but I want to get it.
BIGGEST MUSEUM I'VE EVER BEEN TO!
I sat and read the first page of one book, wasn't sure if I was supposed to sit down.. but I did..
I love peacocks, peacock feathers, they're just so classy!
I wondered why there were clothes, apparently this is the staple of what Americans wear? I don't see it.
Love paintings like these. I feel like they are old landscape paintings, just made more contemporary.
LOVE LOVE LOVE SHAPES!
I want this in the foyer of my future home..
When I saw this, I was like WTF? AWESOME! ha
SOOO AS YOU CAN TELL, I had an amazing time at LACMA! This museum was so huge(like everyone said)
I had the most fun at the contemporary art building, everything there was just so up to date and seemed so into tune with the world now. I love contemporary art, so everything else did not seem to interest me as much as the work at the contemporary art building.

Artist Research - JENNY HOLZER
So I definitely feel like I got an artist that I can totally relate to. I love quotes, and she is all about quotes, and showing the world what she has to say, literally!
My artist is JENNY HOLZER, she is an abstract artist who focuses on painting and printmaking.
She uses many objects to display her art, some examples would be:

AND MY FAVORITE, LED'S AND LIGHT PROJECTIONS:



Here are more of Jenny's prjections: http://www.jennyholzer.com/list.php
Jenny started off with her own phrases and words, but ever since 1993 she started to make other people's words into art. Jenny Holzer's art always gets a response, whethere good or bad from the people who view it, she talks about very bold situations or topics.
Jenny believes that many of the things she reads can be summarizes into one phrase, and this what her art was, which she called "TRUISMS".
To project her art, Jenny had to learn how to use LED machines, to reach out to a larger audience. She learned the technology of these types of machines, and displayed nice of her "TRUISMS" at Time Square.
Jenny's main idea was to make people realize whethere or not they realize what they are being fed by the media, and whethere they pay attantion to all the things they see, and how it affects them.
Holzer says she was inspired by "clean, simple variations"
