The biggest plus is that the surface is rigid, which helps to control the brushstrokes.

The extendable/mechanical arms clearly portray post-humanism. The fact that these arms are assisting the mother in caring for the child, in what appears to be a very nurturing way, represents some of the ideas of the psychoanalytic feminist theory. Overall, it is a very interesting piece to interpret.<BR/>(Nate Parks, MWF 9:00-9:50 a.m.)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4353884300349864912.post-2402573610919111052008-03-07T11:34:00.000-05:002008-03-07T11:34:00.000-05:00This piece is amazing and certainly portreys a pos...This piece is amazing and certainly portreys a post-human element. What is truly interesting about this piece is that the artificial parts of the woman are holding the child with care and yet their eyes are turned away from each other, making them seem disconnected.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4353884300349864912.post-46600002293417697532008-03-05T16:41:00.000-05:002008-03-05T16:41:00.000-05:00This piece is really interesting and definitely em...This piece is really interesting and definitely embodies a post-human element. It seems as if normal, nurting hands of a mother are mixed with the robotic and mechanical hands she probably wishes she had to cope with the strain of raising a new child. Although artificial limbs would seem to represent something cold and unemotional, I think in this case it is opposite. It shows the mother's desire to be endlessly giving and supportive, even if it takes so much out of her.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
