TECHNICAL DIFFICULTIES-
As you might know I am still having some difficulties- both power outages and spinning wheels of death. It is most likely because I have too many large photos on my desk top.
So I give you this image of the mom raccoon who lives in one of my trees who has 4 babies. I am not a nature photographer but I enjoyed trying. It was taken with my DSLR (a Nikon D810 lens 70-300mm). My photos from my phone were awful!

Her work uses PostModern Principles- Recontextualization, Text & Image and Appropriation (the photos are not hers).
Recontextualization
Positioning familiar imagery in relation to pictures, symbols, or texts that it is not usually associate with. A process that extracts text, signs or meaning from its original context in order to introduce it into another context. Since the meaning of texts and signs depend on their context, recontexturaliation implies a change in the communicative purpose to.

Text and Image
Creating meaning through the combined interplay of text and imagery. Artists working in this style often combine images and text that don't obviously go together. This results in a piece of work that build meaning that is beyond the text and image alone. Combined they create a stronger meaning.

Appropriation
To appropriate is to borrow. Borrowing imagery from historical and mass media sources, such as found photos and advertising. Through the act of borrowing, the artist manipulates, adds to. Appropriation is the practice of creating a new work by taking a pre-existing image from another context—art history, advertising, the media—and combining that appropriated image with new ones. Or, a well-known artwork by someone else may be represented as the appropriator’s own. Such borrowings can be regarded as the two-dimensional equivalent of the found object. But instead of, say, incorporating that “found” image into a new collage, the postmodern appropriator redraws, repaints, or rephotographs it. This provocative act of taking possession flouts the modernist reverence for originality.

The past week or so has been rather active. We have seen the power of Photography working to inform or to incite- depending on the perspective. That is what makes Photography magical and tragic. Please find your truth in all that you are exposed to.
The Skyline Counseling Team will be offering sessions for students to have an open space to talk about and/or get support for at least the rest of the week from 2-3pm on the recent events going on in our nation. The google meet is: meet.google.com/wxh-ikqo-
