The colonial act of drawing border lines equates to drawing lies. This essentially means that when the maps were drawn up by European explorers‚ they were taking the preexisting geography but changing up the layout.

In Albrecht Durer’s Self-Portrait‚ made in 1500 using oil on wood panelling‚ we see that the artist regards himself as a great individual worthy of praise. Durer made this painting after he had visited Italy during 1494-95. There he was introduced to the "idealism" associated with art. He was also introduced to the concept that the artist was their own‚ independent creative genius. Durer represents himself as an idealized‚ Chirst-like figure. His pose is harshly frontal‚ looking directly at the viewer

Without a doubt‚ there is no topic that I am better acquainted with than myself. However‚ despite my seemingly extensive and comprehensive database about me‚ it was surprisingly difficult for me to create pieces about myself.
