I am using this piece for my RISD application, so I was given a prompt to create a piece for. It also conveniently fits in my concentrations and I tottttaaallllly didn't do that on purpose. Anyways, the prompt was to create a piece based on the word "deconstruct". My immediate thought was about the deconstruction of ourselves because I have a habit to tear myself down. I began thinking of ways I could tell this story. The word deconstruction made me think of building, and my first thought connected to building was legos because what mature and wise eighteen year old wouldn't think of legos. However, in the end these legos turned into simple building blocks because i forgot to add the little circles that are on top of legos. Anyways, i decided it would be interesting to show someone breaking off little legos from their body. I chose a crouched position because the legs were a larger surface that would then make the lego hole larger and more of a focal point. In general i like the concept behind the piece. I also really like the color choices I made and THE SLEEVE OF THE SHIRT IS SO NICE. I don't mean to toot my own horn but i am very proud of that sleeve. Fabric is kind of difficult but I made that sleeve my... very nice drawing. I do however wish I took more time on this piece but I have soooo many more pieces to make that I am on a serious time crunch. Overall, I am happy with the piece, especially that sleeve.
