Fluxus Box

Pulp Fiction Fluxus box, foam core, paper, glue, black, grey, and red paint, a mirror, a band aid, a toy car, fur, a wallet, flour, plastic wrap and a plastic bag, a trophy, a bible, a cigar, cotton, and red lipstick, 16" x 12" x 5" This project was inspired by the iconic movie Pulp Fiction by Quentin Tarantino. I chose this movie because it was one of the first "adult" movies that I was allowed to watch growing up, and because I love stories with action and violence. I made the box to resemble the suit case that Jules and Vincent are carrying for many scenes, except I designed it to not open like the traditional suitcase would. On the inside of the lid, I used a dirty gold piece of paper to represent the glowing light that comes out of the suitcase every time a character opens it. On top of that paper is a circular mirror with numbers out of order, meant to represent how the sequence of the movie is broken up and out of order...

Touch inspired by Diane Ackerman

Without it, everything is meaningless. Either it makes the suffering endless, or it stimulates you enough to get by. In my past I have followed the latter choice, but not without harboring what is left of it now. Back then, I remembered pain as a wave. It hits you and then takes control.

Memento

Image
Discomfort memento, wood, metal, and leather, 4" x 4" x 5" This sculpture was made as a memento for the memory of telling my family about when I was sexually assaulted. The memory involves being in a hardware store in the lumber section, when out of sheer chance the conversation came up. The materials I used represent the setting of the memory as well as how I felt telling them about this part of my life. The leather straps are supposed to represent the restraint I felt by keeping the event unknown and inside of myself for so many years. The nails, however, are meant to represent the discomfort in explaining the situation to them. By using a pyramid shape, I was able to create a form that had many chaotic lines, and also a neutral square.  https://foundations3ddesign.blogspot.com/search/label/Memento%20Artists
