Unlike a lot of other neighbourhoods in London, Shoreditch always seems to divide opinion. With some people loving the vibe, culture and area, while others… not so much! Shoreditch is an area of London that always surprises me, the area changes at such a fast pace! One day there is some secret underground supper-club and by the next day it has been transformed into a circus themed dentist surgery, being entertained by lion tamers while getting your teeth checked… :-) … Okay, so a slight…

All artworks have some type of value placed on them, be it by society or by the artist themself. Here, I will be discussing three artworks that all hold significant values, some different and some the same. Two of the works I looked at were readymades by Marcel Duchamp; ‘Fountain’, created in 1917, and ‘L.H.O.O.Q.’ in 1919. My other selected work is one of Picasso’s most famous oil paintings, ‘Guernica’. Marcel Duchamp’s ‘Fountain’ remains to be one of the most influential artworks of the 20th…

“I have never allowed a gentleman to dictate to me, or to interfere with anything that I do” (James 444). In the text Daisy Miller by Henry James, an untraditional relationship develops and unfolds between Mr. Winterbourne and Miss. Daisy Miller. Upon meeting in Vevey, Switzerland, they immediately connect. After talking for half an hour, Winterbourne concludes that Daisy is an American flirt, which is not the type of woman Mr. Winterbourne is used to meeting where he lives in Geneva. As a…

It was a very average day for Dowers. He woke up, and took a walk around the small town. And like a average day, He stopped at the coffee shop to read and talk with his friends. Dowers was the mayor of Brothersville. He had a moustache that resembled the monopoly guy and was loved by his townsfolk. They loved him so much that there had not been another mayor of Brothersville for over half a century. Dowers had grown up in the north but had moved south to find work. Just 6 o'clock…

Hand stripping is the best way to achieve the best results however is rare and usually performed on show dogs as this takes a lot of time and hence will be expensive. Removing a complete coat by hand will of course take hours. The stripping knife is by far the better option as it is much quicker and does not damage the coat but removes the soft under layer and dead hairs. The clipper is usually performed when matting is bad as clipping makes the coat soft and therefore is incorrect for the breed…

the twentieth-century it incurred the debate what constitutes as art is it the object or the concept. o Another example of Duchamp’s work is Mona Lisa L.H.O.O.Q. As can be seen in the image it seems he has vandalized the image with a beard and a moustache Duchamp creates this as such to state that Mona Lisa is a man not a transvesite but an actual man. Looking into the title of the artwork L.H.O.O.Q which read in the French language sounds out ‘She has a hot arse’ at first can be seen as…

John Singer always put his hand on his friend’s arm and looked for a second into his face before leaving him. Because McCullers was the prisoner of the grotesque, she chooses for her fictional world people with the misfits, the ugly and the abnormal. When Singer and Antonopoulos are together Singer would eagerly talk gesticulating with his hands about all that is moving in his mind and Antonopoulos would recline on bed, placid and indolent. He seldom moves his hands to speak and when he does it…

Group-Generated WFQ: How does detective fiction build tension through the use of clues and disguises? How is structural tension built with these elements of detective fiction? Hot and Cold Trails Clues and disguises build structural tension in detective fiction by throwing off the reader, tossing them back and forth between clarity of mind and clouded judgment, like the push and pull of ocean waves. Clues often allow the reader to start to unravel a mystery in their mind while disguises are…

lackadaisical by any means, but he was quite happy that the day was very taciturn, which meant he didn't have to go travelling around the neighbourhood. A tall man at 187cm with an ear piercing, blue eyes, short orange hair, and a neat gingery moustache. Although at forty-four years old, he was really starting to notice that the greys were really starting to make their presence known. He was enjoying the peace and quiet of his office when the phone rang, which startled him so much that he…

In To Build A Fire, the man’s attitude towards the land changes drastically as the situation becomes a matter of life or immediate death. In the beginning of the story, the man is very confident in his ability to survive the journey in the wilderness, despite being a chechaquo or “newcomer in the land.” (Allen et al., 2012, p. 82) He was not prepared with the necessary equipment or knowledge for this journey. He didn’t protect his cheeks or nose, which would eventually suffer from frostbite.…
