Provide a colonial analysis of a visual image presented (http://www.kentmonkman.com/.). For your analysis, consider addressing the following questions: • How does colonialism inform the artist’s work? What specific colonial forces are woven into the themes and ideas in the work? (See weeks 1-3 for further direction) • How does the artist respond to colonialism? • How does the artist articulate resistance to colonialism in his or her work? • Does the artist draw upon traditional ideas or conventions in his or her contemporary work? If so, what is the impact and significance of such an approach? • What is the significance of the themes within the work? • What is the medium, size, focal point? How does this work speak to you?
