Sheena Fear and Humor

Abraham is a meme

The aim of this meme style picture was to create humor out of the story of Abraham and Issac. A starter pack is a way that people are able to identify common experiences or human tropes by things that they say and wear. In the paintings that we saw in class there were common articles of clothing that correlate to Abaraham which were his beard, the dagger, the shall, the shoes etc. Not to mention, I added my own memes in there where they are pointing fun at the plights of Abraham and his belief in God. Even though in class this was supposed to be our fear segment when reading about Abraham’s story, the aftermath of Abraham's devotion to God can be seen as quite humorous and unserious. I chose to twist the normally fearful religion trope into making light of a very serious situation about a man and his devotion to god.
