Art school

I am in art school. It controls my life. I can't even do simple everyday activities without thinking about visual balance, kerning and font. I fucking love it.

CheshireCat said:

please...its pointless to keep sending each other insults and not what I pay to do on this site...have a nice life.

CheshireCat said:

I think im definitely a pretentious douche ...

One thing I have learned is to really BULLSHIT at school,and how to sound profound about a work, if I sense the confusion in my other peers when I talk then I know I am onto something good.

I fucking hate this attitude....it only lends it's hand to those who really can't make work and therefore have to bullshit and make everyone elses lives miserable while we have to sit through the crit rolling our eyes.

CheshireCat said:

well I can assure you that my work is anything but bullshit,I get what your saying though.In general I hate the crit part because I think its ridiculous to try and explain your work to someone.The funny part is that the one time I did just make something up on the spot everyone bought into as opposed to the many times I tried to illustrate my point on my work. It seems like the main point of crit classes are to attack the person in order for them to defend their work.I have found that most people in my classes bullshit their way through it ,mostly because they have nothing to say.

You've made it pretty clear that your work is bullshit and that the only way you can get anyone to accept it is by trying to confuse them by sounding profound.
I think what you are too daft to realize is you don't sound profound at all. You sound like a fifteen year old that just finished their first philosophy class.

Just a tip, The confusion you sense, isn't something good. You aren't on to anything.
Using art-speak and big words is about as transparent as it comes and if you really believe your inadequacy is hidden behind that thin veil of pompous assery you are going to be in for a shock.

As I understand criticism (and how I teach it to my writing students), the artist or writer is not supposed to explain their work, or even respond to the criticism. People don't care what you intended with your work, and whatever their response is, telling them that it is wrong shows a marked lack of creativity and thought on the part of the artist.

So, to put it bluntly, you don't get to say if your work is bullshit or not.
