5 Questions:
1. Why makes you work with plates so much?
2. What brings religion into the artwork?
3. Why so many faces cut out?
4. Why are feet or hands apart of your work?
5. Where in Pennslyvania did he exhibit?
5 Observations:
1. Uses plates in almost all artwork
2. Religion connections in majority.
3. Faces cut out
4. Gold Leaf in a lot of artwork
5. Curious on where/how much
Recap: After the video chat, we realized why the religion is a big factor in his works. I enjoy how he removes faces, and has multiple plates, creating a unique visual picture. This allows the viewer to create their own image and how it connect to them. I learned that he doesn't use real 24k gold in his work because of how expensive it is.
Picture Paragraph #7
In the picture there is a large variety of items to choose from. The picture is most likely taken in either a grocery store or a pharmacy, due to the fact it contains items such as cleaning products, food, and medicine. There are two customers in the store throughout all of the aisles. Because of the scale of the store and amount of items, the two people appear to be lost and overwhelmed. Aside from the picture being in a grocery store, the setting and weather outside of the picture is most likely very cold; this is seen because of the clothes that the two people are wearing. The amount of produce covers the picture from top to bottom, making the people seem like a needle in a haystack. Because of the aisles and organization of the products, it seems clear that the store is well managed and fully stocked. There is no lack of items on the shelves, indicating that the store had just opened, which is a reason why there are so few people in the store at the time of the picture. After the picture is taken, there is an excellent chance that the two people in the store are going to buy the items that they pick up. This picture shows that society is organized, but there are many different parts of it that work with each other, to create the full picture.
Tim Roda Feedback #6 : I am glad we got to spend time talking to Mr. Roda. I wish he wasn't as sick because I could tell he was a unique person with genuine ideas. I thought he used a shadow of people standing behind the picture, but he told the story of how it was actually paintings on the wall, which never ended up being covered after 17 layers of white paint.
Tim Roda 5/5 #5 :
1. Who are the kids in your photos?
2. Where'd his legs go in Picture #27 from Seattle?
3. Was that an abandoned car in Italy/New York Picture #88?
4. What was the orange wire used in the Orange & Blue video?
5. What is the reasoning for the various shadow use?
1. In Italy New York #132; I thought using the shadow coming out of his head, as if a dream, was a great idea.
2. He uses a ton of shadows to get his points across.
3. Mr. Roda makes unique creations through random objects.
4. I enjoy how he uses his family in most of his pictures, which means they are pretty close, just like my dad and I.
5. Each background has a different, random sequence, that makes the image.
Color Assignment #4

| Carolina Blue ( in honor of UNC ) |
My favorite color is "Carolina Blue" as I might call it. The reason I respond to this particular color, is because one of my favorite colleges is North Carolina. I am a die-hard fan when it comes to basketball in part to Michael Jordan. Michael Jordan is my favorite basketball player, ever since I was a child adoring "Space Jam".
