Project Two: Painting

Eleven A.M. by Edward Hopper
  • The room seems cluttered and dark behind her giving a depressing mood but makes the room seem contained and small
  • She is looking down onto the street: wishing she was joining those in society. 
  • Lighting only coming from the open window: suggests that it is her only access to freedom and is a contrast to her environment inside the room
  • She is naked: symbolises how she is not ready or not able to leave her space.  Her nakedness also suggests that she doesn't get visitors and no one else lives with her. 
Final Narrative.
"A prisoner alienated in a tower longing for escape"
