Artist Statement
This piece represents communication. The TV represents modern, daily communication. The static represents miscommunication. The pendulum board represents a less modern and less efficient mode of communication. The candles represent a communication that has ended or been cut off. This all comes together to represent the different forms of communication that are present today, as well as some of the pitfalls of these types of communication.

Artist Statement
In this piece, I am representing my visual processing disorder. Different colors can effect the way that I see, some help me to see more clearly while others can hurt my vision. Blues help, yellows hurt, and other colors can sway either way depending on their tone. This piece represents that, although it cannot be seen simply by looking at me, this struggle I go through is real.

Artist Statement
As an artist I try to find colors and shapes or patterns that are meaningful to me. The red and yellow colors in the first stage reminded me of the earth, this representation continued throughout the rest of the stages in this piece. For the next stage I added a circular pattern, the shape of the earth. For the third stage I continued with a circular pattern, yet turned the red earth green. For the fourth stage I represented the sky by painting the canvas white, and added orange to represent the sun and blue to represent the sky. For the fifth stage I represented the ocean with blue water and metallic waves. In the final stage I showed the combination of the elements of the earth by braiding together the strips of layered paper. The braid also represents that the elements of the earth are all dependent upon each other.
