In season one of Orange is the New Black (OINTB), Piper Chapman finds herself in Litchfield Penitentiary, a women’s prison in upstate New York. Year’s prior, Chapman had been unknowingly involved in a large-scale drug ring, connected to the illegal activity by her girlfriend Alex Vause. In a plea deal Vause gave the government Pipers name, and she is plucked from her comfy life as an engaged artisanal soap businesswoman. Throughout the first season viewers see how Piper assimilates to life in Litchfield. Although Piper is the main character, there are several storylines the show follows are we are introduced to characters within and outside of the prison walls. Through these storylines the show addresses issues such as poverty, alcoholism, sexuality and race relations. Most importantly, the show gives a peek inside the walls of a place most individuals may never see.

In this scene Suzanne explains to Piper that it is okay if she doesn’t love her because Piper “is a bad person” (). With this dialogue the lighting reinforces the idea that Piper is locked in a small, dark place because of the bad she has done. It creates a pure and even raw environment that seems inescapable. In addition to lighting, color can have a great influence in any work. We study the application of color through different pieces of work through time. Ancient Egyptian, Greeks and Catholics, used color in different ways to convey certain messages. Today, color influences our life on a daily basis. As it applies to the process of aesthetic analysis, color “QUOTE DEFINITION OF COLOR”. In two contrasting scenes, (38:41 & 41:15), we can see how the directors in OITNB decide to utilize

    Most noticeably, the use of dark lighting exemplifies the importance of relationships. In Edward Scissorhands, Edward was in a dark castle and was lonely until Peg takes him to her bright and lively house. The dark lighting showed Edward’s loneliness, however, the bright lighting of the town and Peg’s house showed how he was able to create a relationship with the town’s people, which he was unable to do previously in the tower. In Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Wonka did not have a good relationship with his father, so the flashbacks of his childhood are in a darker light.

    In this show everyone is just waiting for the next to fall, it turns into gambling game, the most crazy looking person can be the most smart and astute. The most weak minded looking is the most powerful and most influential.

    People often toss around the notion that “art is subjective.” We have heard the phrase “beauty is in the eye of the beholder” one too many times growing up. We all understand that everyone holds different perspectives, but maybe we have become numb to the actual meanings behind these words. We are the ones who succumb to the aesthetics of art without truly understanding the contexts in which it arises from. We seem to think we know all about a culture once we possess or even create a certain “stereotypical” work of art. We get so caught up in the beauty of it all, but we need to question what exactly aesthetic values do in creating a false sense of reality. Writers like Teju Cole understand this urge and give us a wake-up call that we are living…

    Piper Kerman is a Smith College graduate who is serving thirteen months in prison, from 2004 to 2005, for a drug trafficking and money laundering crime she committed nearly ten years before. For most of her entire stay Piper is placed in a minimum-security prison in Danbury, Connecticut. I am from Avon, Connecticut so because her story was so close to home it immediately struck me as interesting. Her experience is eye opening, and as the book progresses you can see a slight transformation from a “normal” person to a hardened convict. Pipers book, Orange is the New Black, gives insight into the realities of women’s minimum-security prisons in the United States and how the criminal justice system works today. Which, as we find out, can be a long and frustrating process.…
