Ritual- Ann Hamilton


This drew my attention just becuase I thought it was strange. After it caught my eye, I immediately wanted to know what was going on. This piece of art was done by Ann Hamilton and is titled "Untitled (body object)." The little information I found on this photograph had an interesting interpretation. It suggested that even though the women's eyes and ears are covered, it still conveys a message to the audience. Phrases like "basket case" or "head case" could be contrued by an observer. This relates to our first class where we discussed how art can be symbolic or give a message. I just found this really interesting.
