I like that you included the definitions at the very beginning, because that has been a large part of what your project is all about. Defining what is personal style, and what someone's style can ultimately say about themselves to the observer. By including this definition you are opening up your project before going into what it is you are wanting to convey; this gets the viewers thinking. In your curator statement you did well explaining each and every piece and how the descriptions are to the point and it helps the viewer get a small background into each example. The layout visually is easy to look at. I like your choice of colors. The use of pastels makes the overall design look clean to not distract from the full sight and its contents.
I like that you chose to include the definitions of both style and personality on your home page. It let me know what the rest of the online exhibit was going to be about. Your curator statement was informational about each of the artworks which was helpful. I liked to have the background information before I went on and looked at the rest of the exhibit. The sentence, “This plays into the idea of personal style and personality, because people pre-judge other by the way they are dressed before knowing their true personality,” was an important concept to mention because it is a problem with our culture these days.
The layout of your online exhibition fits your project's theme very well and helps your whole exhibit come full circle. I think that the layout of your curator statement is straight the point and allows for the viewer to gain a good understanding of what they are about to see. I think that it would also be beneficial if your went more in depth about the connection between each artwork, but overall there is a good description of the works.
I really liked the design elements of the layout in your exhibition, the colors worked really well and gave it a certain softness that compliments the fragmented design. The curator statement is a little lengthy though and should probably have been on the home page. Also, I think it focuses too much on the artists themselves, not on the exhibit as a whole. The definitions are a good idea but I think that you needed to emphasize and explain, in more detail, that they were the focus of the exhibit. Also,there is some confusion with the heading for Giovanni Ferraro because it lists him as the curator.
