Self

Self is an art piece created to express conflicts of identity.

When we are born an identity, religion moral, politics are given to us by our parents. For most of our life’s we are supposed to believe and accept the identity we received by birth without question it.

However, some of us somewhere in our lifetime we start to begin on a self-discover journey as we undergo maturation.

This art piece portrays the pull and push between identity that one undergoes in finding purpose of life and true identity. Quarrying into the past where experiences that shaped our identities can be horrible or amazing. The realization that believes embedded on one selves are wrong or lies can be very difficult to be detached and changed.

The Journey it’s not all clear and happy, it will include fear confusion doubt as we question the who are we it’s like two persons being pulled apart before the encounter of true self.

To convey our message, we choose the use of a sculpture contain a body with 2 heads, lights, the use of negative space texture, sound, color and visual animations.
