Walk With Us,

colored ink, gel medium, wood,

3" x 3" x 1/4"




Artist Statement: 
This sculpture reflects the time that I spent with my friends on the beach late at night. I remember this so vividly because it was the first time that I had a group of friends that I got along with and had common likes and interests with. I used a piece of wood to represent the sand at the beach. Then I chose, very carefully, monochromatic color palette to represent the ocean. Then I created these seashell looking abstract foot prints, to represent the path that we would walk on the beach. I believe that I have visually communicated unity and balance in this piece with the color and the abstract pieces that I put on this piece.

Mermaids are creatures that are half woman half fish. They're the mediators of humans and sea life. 'The Oceans Inside us' discusses how we are connected to the oceans early in evolution. ‘These creatures have us questioning about humanity’s understanding of and place in the universe.’ –article ‘Connection between humans and the seas.’ -article https://www.jstor.org/stable/26627621?seq=5      Memory and Olfaction: We smell things and remember certain events, items, people, etc. 'The Oceans Inside Us' discusses how our ancestors smelled to detect danger was coming or to find a mate. ‘When it comes to smell its like a sensory footprint for memory.’ –article For example, the smell of fresh baked cookies can remind you of your grandma. No need to be cooking with her in that moment to remember this memory, the smell of the cookies reminds you of her. • https://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&AuthType=shib&db=30h&AN=152788594&authtype=shi...

Spoken Seasons Natural leaves,  natural pressed flowers, plaster, golden chain, museum wax, black foam board, hot glue, pallet wood, plexiglass, acrylic paint and water (stain), nails and screws 21",  24",  3" Found Object Artist Statement           Spoken seasons, has already been spoken about but if I can hint more into what’s spoken seasons really means even more so now that a shadowbox was created for it, I would begin How a shadowbox works. Shadowbox is used to contain contents within inside of it and it can’t be touched. A shadowbox is meant to keep the outside from coming in. And with spoken seasons, I have created space of natural cycles with my dancing leaf ladies.and I created a shadowbox because these dancing ladies represent the four seasons that we go throughout every year. The seasons are consistent maybe not at all times of the year, but we can always count on them to happen every single year. As humans we love to get our hands...

A Few of My Favorite Things (ART226 B F)

1. Sea Glass: The sea glass found in this blue vase is from a trip I went on with my family. We went to Puerto Rico during this past summer and it was a great memory I made with my brother. It reminds me of our bond. 2. Iridescent Turtle: This little guy actually opens up. In its shell is where I store all of the shark teeth I've found on any and all beach trips I've been on. A lot comes from Vilano, but it reminds me of these adventures. 3. Polaroid Camera: This camera was given to me as a Christmas gift from my parents. I've taken a few images with it already and it really captures the important moments well. It reminds me that time goes by fast, but any image I've taken with this camera is like capturing the memories that follow with it.  4. Iridescent Kunai Knifes: These knives I had bought for myself. I have never wanted to purchase a knife before, let alone throwing knives. But these were something I saw and I have enjoyed them ever since. They also remind me of ...
