post 4 / ‘do your eyes hurt, if you look too long?’ / njcu buildings / materials tbd / fatima flores

 with having no inspiration in my presentation, i finally did some research on op art an found some art pieces and a couple of artist that gave me inspiration; one of which was bridget riley and jean-pieere yvaral. with yvaral’s op art consisting of pixel-like portraits and bridget riley’s geometric op art, it gave me the idea of creating art that looks like it’s moving. 

 i've decided to put it up all over the njcu buildings, i.e. vab, gsub, library, and etc. all will be pinned up on bulletin boards and taped up on walls. it doesn’t need to be in the center of the boards, but it will visible where people can look at. the meaning of this art intervention is to show how op art can play tricks with your eyes and mind, thinking that the image is moving, when in reality it’s not. i think its form can change, if you look at it at from a different angle. i plan on leaving it up until next semester. 

(just an idea, not official)
