Art Rationale

WhatI am Doing:

I am still not sure what to stick with. But right now I am leaning most towards a painting of an autopsy.
I want it to be simple but an Attention grabber too. It is going to be a canvas painting in the back, but there is going to be a pice of linen in the front with another painting on it, and when you put them togetherthey will make a whole painting.

Why did I decide to do it this way?

I decided to use a linen in front to represent, the cover that the Pathologists use when they cover a body. Also the linen is like a first layer, Sometimes we have to look beyond the first layer of something and accept things how they are.and people need to see beyond just the cutting up of a corpse. They need to see death in a whole different way. I am going to try to make it interesting and as aesthetically leasing as I can, After all it is a painting of death, and I would like to show people that the unknown is not as bad as it seems and that death is a part of life and it is intersting in it's own way.

E.Q.: What is most significant when investigating a person's death?

Idea:
Well, my idea for this project is for sure going to be a visual art. I am in between a painting that has like 3-D things coming out of it, made of recycled things or things I find around the house. I was also thinking of making a sculpture made out of paper mache and some clay.  They will both be of an aspect of an autopsy or something with the human body. I may do the whole body or just a certain part of the autopsy like the brain part. It might be a little gross to look at, but it's ok. I was also thinking of mixing some like a painting and a photograph. I most likely will not do this one, but we shall see what happens. I was thinking of getting the left over cow blood that I have and Painting with it. Then when that painting is done I was going to use some of the Luminol I had left over and spray it on so that it can glow and the painting will glow in the dark. I would need to take pictures of this because I do not want to hang a canvas with blood on it in the class rooms. That would really gross people out. So just taking photos of it may work.

How does it relate?: 
The paining and the sculpture of the human body relate to my essential question because one of the most inportant aspects of an investigation is the Autopsy. The autopsy allows the body of the victim to speak to the Pathologist in ways that other people do not understand and it gives evidence for the case.
