this piece is about the frustration in life that we all experience.
for whatever reason, i really am drawn to drawing and sculpting very intense, exaggerated facial expressions, especially angry, disgusted, or stressed wrinkles. they are just fun to look at and draw/sculpt in my opinion.
in addition to this, i also think by exaggerating emotions to a ridiculous extant makes them seem silly and allows for me to take a step back and laugh at myself and how worked up i can get in my own frustrations.
in this way, i can sort of free myself from the heat of the moment.
a couple topics of frustration i intend to address in this piece are:
the destructive nature of consumerism, especially media consumption.
my personal discomfort in my perception of race, especially my own.
the (occasionally) harmful pressure of social norms
status anxiety
as i continue to work on this piece, i plan to explicate these topics with my surface design.
