Cultural context within your chosen medium is a crucial aspect to consider in artwork. Culture is in all characteristics of life around us, ideas, meanings, values and beliefs all shared by individuals. You need to think about this when it comes to art, think where the artwork is going to be placed, is it a different country - there will be a difference in cultural background, how could go around that and will it still change the views on the image. It could cause offence to some people and as time moves on what might have been acceptable in the 1950’s will not be now and vice versa, so age will need to come into consideration too.
The context of any art can change its message and the way the audience will perceive it, by getting away from the original context as the culture surrounding change.
