Chapt3 Day5 - Transformational progress.

How ridiculous can people be?

Trying to impose your own fears on me and syiii...
Today I got a call from family claiming me demonic because of the graphics I put up online yesterday, o apparently my grandparents were freaked out and stuff thinkingI'd lost my marbles, But at the end of the day I'm an artist and this is who9 and what I am.. this is what I do and I love doing it.

Can't wait to finish my artist statement so I can send it to them so they will know whats up.
The crazy thing about this entire thing is that I'm beginning to9 realise that there's a specific idea that people cling on to about you whether it is true or not.

At the end of the day, I am my own person.. 22 and making my own pathway forward. Nobody can live my life as much as I can't live anybody elses. I am responsible for me and what I do with myself and I'd like for people to allow the freedom to live in whichever way it feels right to me. I am a normal human being, the only difference between me and the rest of the poplulos is maby perhaps because I've chosen an unconventionally creative profession and career, there's no going back from that but I love what I do.. People need to stop with the labels.

My entire project has taken on a different turn.
What I'd like to do with my transformation at this point is to play around with the good and the bad, the human and the super human. The basic idea of the project was to create a half human half alien character. Symbolic of the break away from the social construction of our forms to something more unique, more self constructed and rigid.

The way that my family responded to my work has inspired the direction that my entire transformation is taking.
The idea behind it is, is reflection.

There are going to be 2 sides, a good and a bad of the same thing. the one face is going to plagued with negative labels and the other one plagued with positive labels with mirrors stuck around as a background.

The symbolism of this is how we are all reflections of one another.
Everybody comes with both good and bad qualities, what you choose to focus sais more about what and who you are then it does about the person that you are judging or reflecting.
