Barbara Krugger Photo Reflection

a.        What do you see in this piece of art (describe it)?
In this photo, it shows a women with too sides, her light side and her dark side. It also means her good side and her bad side. Like all of Barbara Krugers photos, its a really strong image of a women split in half, one side light and one side dark.

b.       What kind of message is the artist giving in this piece of art?
There is several ways to interpret Krugers work. This one I think is talking about how every person has a bad side and a good side. Almost like we all have an angel and a devil in us, battling each other. The angel and devil are fighting to make you chose what actions to take.

c.       Do you like or dislike Kruger’s work? Why?
I actually look like and enjoy Barbara Krugers work. I like it because they have so many ways that you can think of what the message is, and that it really gets your mind thinking to what social issue she is trying to address. This one is talking about how you have basically an angel and a devil on your shoulder.
