Art21 Post #4: Janine Antoni: Redo

One of my other favorite artist, Janine and Tony is one of those special creators that uses her body, personal materials and memories into her pieces. In the video she has made a rope that is made up of a slew of different materials, ranging from pieces donated and created by friends to grandmother's dresses. She talked on how the rope represented her life, and how each piece of the material represents an experience that she had been through, and As she explains she talks about each bit of length of the rope, and what each bit meant. She goes on talking about different pieces, like her Eureka peace and her 2038 piece where she laid in a water manger for cows. I like her work because I feel that it's very representative of The thought process and how we feel, and experience things around us. I feel that a lot of her stuff has weight once given meaning, which I feel is very important in a contemporary piece.
