Celebration time for Jamaica!!

-
The performance of the Jamaican athletes in the Beijing Olympics was fantastic but was it possible for them to repeat in London? Well  they sure did! The Jamaican athletes basically humiliated its rival the USA. For a country that has a population of approximately 3 million to threaten a nation that has 313 million people, is nothing short of amazing.  There was a lot of pressure on Jamaican athletes to perform, especially Usain Bolt, but they did not disappoint.

 The Jamaican euphoria began  with Shelly -Ann Fraser winning the first gold medal and VCB winning the bronze.  At that time I was not able watch and join the festivities as the race was shown during hours of Sabbath, but when I got home I was able to see the replay. Then for the rest of the week I was supporting my fellow-men as they participated in varying events. My parents were acting too poised  for each win, so I joined my friend via skype,  where we hollered and I knocked pot covers together. I have screamed so much that my throat is currently hurting me. In the city people gathered at the centre to watch  for each win, there was literally pandemonium. Sometimes the wins were so great that people cried and hugged even strangers. The ambassador of fun, Usain Bolt treated the Olympics as a party. He was able retain his Olympic titles, and help to break the world record in the sprint relay, even though Carl Lewis tried to rain on his parade. Usain even encouraged a stadium of 80000 people to do the  Mexican wave. The Jamaican anthem was the final anthem to be played in the closing night of the track and field events. We as Jamaicans are so proud of Team Jamaica. Those that represented us in horseback riding , taekwondo, and track and field. As we say in say in Jamaica "wi likkle but wi tallawah".

Comparison of Statue Memi and Sabu and the Statue of Gudea

-

According to Oxford Dictionary (2013) a sculpture is defined as the art of making two- or three-dimensional representative or abstract forms, especially by carving stone or wood or by casting metal or plaster.  Sculptures help to tell the history of how people thought and the practices they conducted. This way of expressing oneself was more important in ancient times as oppose to recent times where we have the benefit of writing books, blogs and much more are readily available.  This essay will seek to compare two sculptures of ancient times, the Egyptian statue of Memi and Sabu and the statue of Gudea from the Neo –Sumerian culture. 2 The Egyptian statue of Memi and Sabu was dated back to the Old Kingdom, Dynasty 4, ca. 2575–2465  B.C. It is a statue that was painted with limestone and represents a non- royal couple; however the inscription on the statue suggests they had royal acquaintance. Their  status are further confirmed  by the way in which the...

Self-Portrait Documentary, Life of Lena Marie Fossen

-
Image
We try to understand, but is that really necessary to become sympathetic or empathetic to one's pain? This is the theme that underscored the recent documentary Self-portrait, based on the life story of the renowned photographer Lena Marie Fossen, who struggled with the eating disorder anorexia nervosa. Lena’s anorexia began at 10 years old, when she decided that she wanted to remain a child and not grow up, why she came to this conclusion was never addressed in the documentary. I think to some extent all of us are nostalgic to our childhood, a time of innocence, being carefree, being protected and no worries at all, perhaps in some way she wanted to hold onto this time. However, her decision to remain a child spiralled into 23 years of struggle with the disease and mental illness anorexia nervosa. As you see her child-like frame speak to the camera, you see in the same moment someone so strong but at the same time so desperately weak. Her thoughts are conflicted, a...

Cezanne, Matisse and Picasso

-
Paul Cézanne born in 1839, Aix-en Provence was a Post-impressionist French painter who became the bridge between impressionism and early modern art such as Cubism. One of his most recognized pieces is ‘The Large Bathers’ that was produced towards the end of his life.  In this painting he did not conform to nineteenth century methods and was applauded by critics for its wide spaces, well –formed figures and use of color (Artble, 2013). Cézanne was able to fulfill his purpose of creating a timeless piece. Two upcoming artists that were highly influenced by the way Cézanne analyzed and pulled apart the subject matter were Henri Matisse and Pablo Picasso. This influence of Cézanne is evident in paintings of Matisse’s ‘Bonheur de Vivre (Joy of Life)’ and Picasso’s ‘Les Demoiselles d’Avignon’. Considered one of his greatest Fauve painting Matisse’s Bonheur de Vivre (Joy of Life) depicts an ‘ Arcadian landscape filled with brilliantly colored forest, meadow, sea, and sky and populated ...
