Drowning



Bill Viola was a very interesting man to watch a documentary on. His exhibits look so cool. I really loved that we were able to see his creative process unfolding on the page. He documented his work so well. I really liked watching the video because it really got into the psychological mind of the artist. I really was able to connect this class to my major. I understand the creative process and the mental work that goes into the process of creating art. I also loved the fact that his art was greatly influenced by his near drowning experience. I thought about how I used to swim down to the bottom of pools and look up and pretend I was in a different world with the sun beaming down in rays.
