3 Artifacts Of Mine

Three artifacts that I could use when doing Ideological Criticism are artifacts that I am interested in and use in my everyday life.
One artifact that I think I could analyze using the ideological method of criticism is the popular television show "Glee." I think that "Glee" would be appropriate for ideological criticism. For example, the time period this show takes place in has the most influence on the message that the show is portraying. So that would fall under the element of "Defining Event" in Ideological Criticism.
Another artifact that I could analyze would be a modern art painting of flowers. I think that this painting would be good for this method because I could look at it, and make a list of the inferences that I feel this painting makes, and create a great essay on the underlying meanings of this painting.
The last artifact I could use when making Ideological Criticism is a statue of Buddha. This artifact has a deep religious meaning for some, and would be very easy to find an ideology for. I feel like this artifact would be the most intriguing to analyze.
