  Materials: book, photography, glue Process: I cut out the middle of the pages to add depth and then I used the parts I cut out to add butterflies and flowers.  Ideas: I wanted to sort of show the butterflies flying out of the book. Since butterflies and flowers have been key idems in many of my other pieces, I felt like I should add them here as well to show a sort of release or freedom from the “doom” that I’m feeling. 

Progress for next piece

  Materials: paper, photography, glue  Processes: I took a picture of the side of my face with my eye as the main focus, I then cut out tear shapes in gems from a crown I was wearing in a previous picture, and blue pieces of paper. Then I cut out pieces of a book I wanted to and glued them.  Ideas: I wanted to show me crying with the gems from the crown I have in a previous piece, and the other pieces. I wanted to show how I’m crying out my childhood or the pieces of me that I connect with my childhood leaving me. The words say “things had never been much worse” to help show how when things are bad I leave the parts of my childhood behind.
