I was especially excited about Sofia&#8217;s presentation because it&#8217;s so relevant to my thesis work with Fluxus, and she made me consider the role of artist identity in shaping the art they produce. I think it&#8217;s surprising that body modification isn&#8217;t really present in performance art because so much of it revolves around body presence and presentation, and tattooing (even if temporary) is an interesting medium for expression. I liked Zehra&#8217;s presentation a lot too and thought she presented the tension between tattooing and fine arts very clearly. I think the way we display, discuss, and view tattoos is a crucial part of understanding why tattoos are different from traditional art and what role they play in the art world. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I still have a lot of work to do in forming my final paper, and I have so many ideas that need to be clarified and narrowed down. Listening to the rest of the class presentations helped me understand the direction that I think my work needs to go in and demonstrated some clearly structured research that will be a great model for me. I also need to narrow down my sources, because I have collected too many and some are no longer relevant to my thesis, <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Listening to the presentations was so interesting, and I enjoyed hearing about everyone&#8217;s research process.
