me and my mom in front of my installation

art installation

The “bottletar” that I created was a long head and hands were touching it with flowers. The thing that made the head long was the forehead and I think that it symbolizes that there are many things that are in my mind. The hands covering the head represents trying to relieve the stress and the flowers represent peace. This bottletar describes my emotions and mind right now. I have a lot of stress because of the SATs, college, and everything else so I used that to create my bottletar. Also, the colors are one of the important aspects in my bottletar. For example, the facial area has generally a neutral, skin color tone. As you go up to the “mind,” there are all sorts of colors like purple, orange, brown, and etc, symbolizing the craziness of my mind. Then, the flowers have a consistent color, and with that, I’m trying to say that consistency can bring me peace.

I think you are the first with all of your cards and your papers up. That makes you the BOSS! I’m going to assign an artist statement soon so you might consider writing one and posting it on the Artist Statement page.

I appreciate your effort and vision!
