MFA SHOW PROPOSAL
Deconstruction is a proof that the energy buried deep inside the parts is not lost even when the are disposed. Instead, this remains in the form of a potential,
waiting for the for the right moment to transform itself once again, into a different, more perceptible form,

CHALLENGES
Due to the current situation I was unable to attend college, which affected my preparation
for the MFA degree show.
-
No access to workshops, before the college had to close, I made
-
arrangements with college technicians to make a metal frame for my
-
sculptural piece.
-
No access to my objects needed for my sculptural piece.
-
No extra funds availabe to buy materials for show.
-
No access to studio space at home.
Fortunately for me I had not brought in to college all the materials I was going
to use the sculptural piece. I was able to source my material from home and my outside environment.
The themes I will be covering in this work will be storytelling, fragility and
the Throw - away society.
