My A Level art final piece
 
1 Attachment(s)
I created this in my 15 hour art exam, it's based around the slut walks (if you haven't heard of them, they're protests started when a policeman said to a group of girls "If you want to avoid getting raped, don't dress like a slut" he essentially blamed the victim) and all the writing is slogans from the slutwalks. The size of this piece is about 5ft tall :)

Criticism is welcome, but please make it constructive. Nice comments are definitely welcome :)

Thankyou :) I'm really pleased with it actually, was damn hard work though, took fifteen hours!

Wow I love this, really powerful

katgrace 06-06-2013 01:13 PM

thankyou very much :) it caused a lot of controversy in the art department at school

Because nobody had ever done something on a proper issue before, most final pieces are just paintings of every day things like landscapes or whatever, whereas I did mine on ending victim blaming in rape

This is breathtaking, you are extremely talented and good on you for tackling something controversial. I hope it opened peoples eyes... you had better get an A*!

I'm doing A Level art at the moment, so I know what you mean about some people just doing paintings that don't really mean anything. I salute you for this, it really is amazing. :) and I'm sure it certainly caught the examiner's eye. ;)

Have you tried art journaling? I bet you'd enjoy it, since it's another way of portraying messages like this through art, and could be done on any scale. And you have completed freedom in how you do it.

Anyway, it is stunning. You should be very proud of yourself. :)

Everything about this is purely perfect. Even the background colouring! Well done xxx

I am no art expert (even though if I did put the letters after my name it would include a BA lol) but I really like that, it is so much better than most of the things I have seen in galleries that are supposed to be expensive and thought provoking. At least yours does provoke thought!!!
Well done I am sure you will do well.
