This was my second to last design project for last semester. I posted some of the progress as I got it done. The assignment was to find a body of text that was precious to us in some way. I chose excerpts from my journal and ended up with a piece that deals with my relationships with the men in my life. I love love love the way it turned out---I painted the portrait in the background with acrylic, the heart is made out the clay, I used a real zipper, needles, razor blades etc. The text is screen printed on sheets of liquid latex. It is in a glass case and the tool is a pair of medical skin pickups.
It is an interactive piece in which the viewer has to use the tool in order to work around the skin-like latex.
