Week 2 Term 3 Visual Art

My kaupapa this year is based on Environmental Protection. This is something that interests me because there are some common problems related to this topic such as environmental pollution, disaster, climate changes and the effect of people on the environment. I want to do painting to show everyone what causes the environment change and how important should people do to protect the place where they live. Saving the environment is saving people's lives. People need to be responsible for talking about the environment and protecting their places.

One of the issues that affect the environment is air pollution. It comes from the smoke of many factories around the world. By using black and red colors to paint a background to make the white gases are dominant.

Polluted air and Fresh air are two opposite sides to each other. The city was modern, fresh and peaceful on the right side. However, it has been dark, contaminated air for a long time due to the unfresh dust on the left side. 

Two paintings are shown the nuclear power stations. They release gases from heating water to create electricity. The smokes causes the bad effect on the environment which could lead to the water and air pollution and climate changes.

I could do painting with colours to show my understanding about the subject. But, I haven't made the subject matter more clearly through my artwork. (Like how to get my paintings link together). 

I think my next step would be practising to paint with other materials (not just only colors) and then making a plan of artworks for the 2.3 assesment.
