Actually, the real title of the pic is "When Goth meets Ghetto".Nice, But the background badly emphasizes the actual picture.
Nah, he's just taller than her. He's probably only like... 6ft... she's probably like 5'5-5'6Travis must be 9 feet tall.
Looks like Pop art to me.Actually, the real title of the pic is "When Goth meets Ghetto".Nice, But the background badly emphasizes the actual picture.
So the background has a purpose.
In that case, he's skinny enough to worry a physician.He's probably only like... 6ft...
Wait wait wait. Now, IANAArtist, but the viewer's eye should be able to infer a purpose from the background itself. I mean, if the artist has to tell the viewer that the background has a purpose, then the background has already failed in that regard since it itself should convey that, since one could argue the whole purpose of good art in the first place is to convey something without NEEDING any side text or explanations.So the background has a purpose.
To be fair, the background doesn't remotely resemble anything related to the goth rock movement of the late 70s and early 80s, nor the problems and struggles of everyday life in the average ghetto. So an explanation in this case, is probably necessary.Wait wait wait. Now, IANAArtist, but the viewer's eye should be able to infer a purpose from the background itself.

At least, that's how I understand it. >_>
Well, I don't where you came to the conclusion that I was focusing on the "Goth Rock" movement, but I'm not. Also, I never made the ghetto side to be about struggles. Why the hell would I want to remind those who live there about those everyday struggles anyways? It's just graffiti art.To be fair, the background doesn't remotely resemble anything related to the goth rock movement of the late 70s and early 80s, nor the problems and struggles of everyday life in the average ghetto.
