Document Summary
Disapora : diaspora is the displacement of a community/culture into other geographical and cultural region(s). (book - persepolis by marjane satrapi) Closure : comics panels fracture both time and space, offering a jagged, separate rhythm of unconnected moments. But closure allows us to connect these moments and mentally construct a continuous, unified reality (idea came from scott cloud. ) Gutter : the space between two panels, which requires an imaginative leap to connect (the storyline). Panel : one drawing in the frame, or on the page that contains a segment of action (in the story) Postmodern : not all works are postmodern but postmodern work came after ww2. It"s a combination of different genres of art. Point is to demonstrate the confusing and modern nature of post ww2 life. Makes use of feelings and dramatizes those feelings on the page. Not objective style of art but one influenced by the stage of the artist and character in the work.
