VANDAL’s physical appearance multitasks between pleasing the eyes of viewers and painting the question of whether or not it is art, or vandalism. Our purpose was to create contradictions that will have our viewers questioning the art, ultimately, deciding if they accept it as art and, or, vandalism and determining if they feel accepted themselves by the piece. The sculpture we created draws in the audience with familiar colors and playfulness in the splattering of spray paint and acrylic. It then tests the individual feeling of being invited into a place while also being rejected by the slight gradient into the darker rims of the sheet. Spikes were fixed into the seating region of the chair falling directly in line with the contradiction of being invited by the center colors, and quickly repelled by the spikes. If we discussed what “vandalism” meant, the conversation would be similar to, “what is art”? To most people vandalism is simply marking up city owned spots with seemingly no purpose, with others standing to believe that this same graffiti falls in conversation with all forms of art.
