Art, Authenticity and Appropriation (An Original Artork by Shafaq)
"This artwork is to represent the cultural groups I am a part of and that I am interested in. I depict myself in American, Traditional Pakistani, and Traditional Japanese clothing. American to display my nationality and the culture I was raised in. Pakistani to show my descent, or parents ‘culture that I was raised with, and Japanese since it is the outgroup culture I have the most fascination with, both in appropriative and appreciative ways. Visual art produced by the Japanese alone already has so much versatility to it in stylization which I admire. According to Young’s “Art, authenticity and appropriation”, the sole fact of me being an outsider producing art derived from Japanese media is existentially inauthentic but can have high aesthetic value. Moreso, borrowing and finding inspiration from stylistic techniques in anime and incorporating it in my existing art style can be an example of personal authenticity."
