Awkward Boy

The Boy with Stripped Shirt Standing

The artwork created by Egon Schiele in 1910. He was an expressionist in his art and style. As an expressionist, He designed his works to how characters in emotions and body language and senses. In his work The Boy with Striped Shirt Standing, Schiele described the kid’s motivation that he’s antisocial to the outside world. The special feature of the kids’ stripped shirt represents as an introvert and frail person. The tangled arms also displayed that the little boy struggled to grow up. In fact, the kid had a problem with his serious well being. He is in mental health. This is how some children had difficult to grow up and be a better person.

Schiele’s image represents the best thing about the boy who born unhealthy. He had a growth issue in his body. The body embodied like me and Paul Newman. We both have difficulty in growth development. Like any children, they are very frail and mentally ill. They have already struggled in their health condition. The reason Schiele's work concluded that people had difficulty to be a better person. They are trying to catch up with their developmental growth.

Also, the work represented young children who usually being targeted by bullies for being slow and weakness. The children struggled to be stronger than older kids. Schiele’s work put great effort into how other people targeted the weakness.
