I've been thinking a lot about my concentration pieces, but it was hard to focus on one issue and broaden the topic through "art" nevertheless, I researched through different artists and landed on idea of "tradition of women's life." I am currently thinking to express this idea through positions, clothes, tradition, and culture of women in different time periods. However, i'm still confused about how to expresse this idea in different form and styles. in other words, i wish to express this issue thorugh abstract, sureal, etc. To expand my possiblities, i visited couple artists. They gave great ideas about tradition and how they express it with their individual creativity incorporated. ALso, fortunately, i met a fashion designer at the hosipital i was staying for the weekend. This woman was a professional business woman, she landed in the hosipital bed because of stress from her job as a designer. Its hard to explain in words, but she sort of gave me an insipiration of female strength, role and position in the society. It has alway been my wish to express feminism through my pieces. At home, I experimented with different materials like wood, tape, elastic, plaster, soap, and paper to form a figure of women in certain position that express the female issue in 21st century. My grandma use to say when you see a girl sitting down, you automatically know what kind of family she is from. Likewise, I striving to succeed in this concentration pieces, and hope that the viewed will "automatically" see what i'm tyring to say.
