Conclusion

Landscape of the Mind is a very personal theme, making each response organic and specific to the individual.  Trying to convey a thought process or mindset is difficult regardless of the medium it's presented in.  The difficulty in capturing a state of feeling is what made this topic fun to work with and left our group with an array of pieces ranging from drug induced self-portraits, to serene landscape.

We learned that although different artists works may seem arbitrary at first glance, if you delve deeper many art works can have a common theme that many people may overlook.

Selecting the theme came naturally because every person, whether consciously or sub-consciously, has an idea of what "Landscape of the Mind" may mean to them. Finding how many different works from different artists tie together was the most difficult part of this whole process.

We found that the job of being a curator may be more exciting if we were showing our own personal works in our exhibition. However we all came to the conclusion that being a curator would be a culturally enhancing experiencing.

We discovered that while every artist came from a different background, they all had a common theme of what "Landscape of the Mind" meant to them. We also discovered that even a clearly defined theme has no boundaries.
