The challenge I chose to do was deconstruct. At first I struggled with this project because I was unsure of which challenge to take on. As I thought of an idea for one of the choices I decided to completely alter my original plan and chose to deconstruct my piece because I believed it further enhances the main idea. The theme of this piece was loneliness and depression. By deconstructing it, or 'shattering' it, I introduced another point of feeling broken, to an extent of impossible repair. The reason why I decided to display her heart was to illustrate how she is vulnerable in her present state. I believe that I was successful in illustrating the theme and main idea of the piece, however, I believe that I could have done more contouring and shading on the woman. I managed to complete this project a couple days after the due date by completing it at home.

Both of my ideas for my concentration centre around portraits of people while using different mediums in each piece. One of which would be acrylic paint, another collage, charcoal, and so on. One of the ideas for my concentration is portraits of people who I met and saw in India during my Me to We service trip. During this trip I met many men, woman, and children who had infectious smiles, therefore, a large theme in this concentration would be happiness.
The other idea which I may focus on is portraits of people who I will never see again. This would include people from any trips I have been on, or pictures I have of people in passing on streets who I may have never even talked to. These pieces would also be made using many different mediums. The difference in this idea is the theme would not only focus on happiness but a range of emotions which I would illustrate through different techniques. |
