Janine Machiedo Research Papers

Decent Essays
After a couple of holiday weeks I am happy to be back with a full post, this time, to present you
Janine Machiedo, a Germany based fine art photographer.
As a lot of other artists I wrote about (Kristamas Klousch, Elyssa Obscura, Jenn Violetta, ——) she often uses herself as the model for her creations, and if this could be just a matter of convenience - she’s always available (quoting the great
Francesca Woodman) it is also probably the sign that the stories she wants to tell are strongly related to her dreams and feelings.
Janine has very good skills at using Photoshop in order to shape her photos in ethereal and surreal almost paint-like pictures, and her work has some similarities with Brooke Shaden’s art.
Her style is also more heterogeneus

    The murals on the second floor of the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology are scaled watercolor replications of the those painted on the walls of the so-called Villa of the Mysteries in Italy. They were commissioned by Francis W. Kelsey in 1924 to preserve the amazing images of the frescoes from continuing deterioration and were re-created by Maria Barosso, an Italian artist, over the course of two years. The original images were first painted on the walls of a Roman villa outside of Pompeii and ultimately affected by the infamous eruption of Mount Vesuvius. As they were created near the beginning of the first century, what the murals depict, or why they were created is relatively unknown. There are theories, of course, but Italy today is much different than it was nearly two thousand years ago, so no one knows for certain.…

    One of the feminist photographers who significantly contributed to the 20th-century feminist photography in the United States and Europe is Jo Spence owing to her role in the formation of the feminine group Hackney Flashers in 1974 and extensive writing and exhibition (Warren, 2005). Jo Spence mainly focused her feminist photographic work on the work, women, and domestic spheres and later developed phototherapy after she was diagnosed with breast cancer using series of self-portraits as therapy and passed on in 1992. Her work acted as inspiration for Angela Kelly born in Ireland and living in the United States who focuses her work on the problems faced by females growing up in a society that is male-dominated, representation, and realism. The work of Cindy Sherman, Barbara Kruger, Mary Kelly, and Sarah Charlesworth among others focused on representation and gender construction evident in cultural myths and stereotypes and perpetuated by mass media and visual images. These feminist photographers worked on challenging political and cultural bias that deeply affected women during the 1970’s and 1980’s.…
