comment of Judy Chicago's work

In my reaserch, Judy Chicago first turned to pyrotechnics in the late 1960s in an effort to feminize the atmosphere at a time when the southern California art scene was almost entirely male dominated. Between 1968 and 1974, Judy Chicago executed a series of increasingly complex fireworks pieces that involved site specific performances around California. Some of these works, titled Atmospheres, were intended to transform and soften the landscape, introducing a feminine impulse into the environment.

For me, her works give me a feeling of women's beauty, as her works' title, it make a sense of atmasphere, like fantasy or something. She set her works in big place so that it can better express the atmosphere of her work. Also, her works can only be placed in some large places, because her own works need a large space to be placed. Because of the big area, her outcomes works, if she put her works on a bedroom or some small area, I don't think her works can as successful as now.

Another interesting thing about her work was the material. Her works were made by fire wroks and dry ice. In our real life, these things were not common to work as a material, they often used to a stage show or to celebrate something. For her works, I think these materials are unique and cannot be instead. Because of these materials, her works shows the right "atmosphere". I think these materials communicate what the artist want to express perfectly.
