I wanted to connect this piece with the larger theme of my recent work,
which is the idea of wabi-sabi ( a Japanese worldview and aesthetic that
is centered around the ideas of impermanence and imperfection). Through
wiping out certain parts of this figure,
I wanted to highlight the idea of transience. I am really interested in
the interaction between the human figure and the natural world and hope
to keep exploring it.

I really like this the exaggeration of the features really draws my eye to the center of the piece and forces me to explore the intense accuracy and detail on the outer features
ReplyDeleteThis looks great! I love the way you shaded the body using different colors I Also think you balanced the piece very nicely.
ReplyDeleteI also like how you shaded the negative space using white and black, it grabs my attention. Great job and looks great!!
