Abstract

In my proposal for this project I suggested doing a series of paintings which referred both to Michelangelo’s Last Judgement and to contemporary culture in order to raise questions about the end of the world and our view of it. I feel that conceptually my show stayed quite close to my original idea and was able, through the combination of Michelangelo’s figures and modern-day images and the progression shown through my work in series, to adequately communicate my ideas. Judging by a number of responses I got during my reception I believe that people were intrigued by this combination and that it caused them to think about the issues being addressed.
