I had a great experience in being able to showcase my work. Overall the piece was well received with minor changes that could further propel the meaning behind the work. My next plan of attack is to implement more blending within the mouth area with the dollar bill print to look more cohesive even though there was a split on whether I should leave it or not. Making the watch more apparent to not emulate a clock would be the next goal given that my intention was not to make the watch come across as a clock. The main concern which will take more processing was further expanding on the artistic side to make the bandage more scattered through my body. Overall the critiques were detailed and were legitimate enough to not stray from the concept.
I primarily focus on sculpture as my medium of choice. This piece is called the Bane of Society. Inspired by the design of snakeskin. Snakes have always had a negative relationship in most cultures with humans especially from a religious standpoint. The dichotomy of the perception of snakes and the design of their skin are two fascinating elements. Highlighting the pattern of the skin was the main focus of this piece by having the material react with light to outshine the shape of the actual snake. Implementing the rigid structure being juxtaposed with the elegant pattern being carved into the figure was to further exaggerate the opposing forces that coexists with snakes.
