Idea #6: Art can be Shocking!

I chose the idea that not everyone can be great at everything because whenever I tell people that I am learning Chinese they always assume that it is an easy language for me to learn and so they assume that I am somewhat smart.

I hope to communicate that learning a language isn’t as easy as it seems and that nobody has the ability to be excel at every subject because nobody is perfect. I took pictures of my Chinese notes and my last semester math class activity problems because I wanted to show that I wasn’t the best in math since I hate numbers and adding, subtracting, dividing, and multiplying the numbers but I wanted to show that I do like to learn Chinese even though it is a really hard language to learn.

I hope that I was successful enough to show that not everyone knows everything and that it is a good thing to not know everything and that makes you unique in this world and shows what your weaknesses and strengths are. It doesn’t matter what you don’t know because in the end you are you and nobody can change that about you.

If I were to do this again, I would make sure that I have a better idea to talk about because for this blog post I really didn’t know what I wanted to talk about since the purpose of this blog post is to show the truth about anything that you choose.

Another idea that I can explore through “shocking art” could be where I show some of the people I grew up Wirth and show how their lifestyle is if they permit me in documenting them and their lifestyle.
