The premise my thesis revolves around the subjectivity of art. Two angels meet in God's boardroom to pitch their blueprints for Adam and Eve. The angel who designed Eve meticulously thought of each feature of the female body as a work of art. The angel who designed Adam went to a bachelor party and blew off his assignment. This explains the awkward appearance of the male form. The boardroom itself is comprised of watercolor paintings that will be hanging in the gallery next to the video itself. The video is a sketch in the vein of Saturday Night Live, which typically does not come to mind when thinking of art. Paintings however, are. Again we get into the subjectivity of art. I explained how the subject of the video is almost like an art critique, to which Charlie Robinson pointed out how the boardroom paintings almost look like a gallery. I have decided to play more into this notion by slightly altering the painting, and making the character of God in my video care more about aesthetic.
John seemed very enthusiastic about my project as well. He encouraged me to take the content as far as I can push it, and think of several other juxtapositions to throw in as well.
