Here is my 3rd & final installation project of the semester! The assignment was to implement an aspect of the past, present, and/or future.
——————————————————————————————-
I chose to construct a vintage television set madeentirely of used VHS tapes of children’s movies. My goal for this project was to remind viewers of the many nostalgic childhood movies that in this case are destroyed. The cover photos for each movie can be seen as a collage through the broken screen as you approach the work closer. This piece hopefully will remind people of how fleeting their childhood was and how fleeting memories from their childhood were. I also hope the viewers can then contemplate how media is changing for the following generations that will not have the same relationship with VHS tapes or older Disney movies like our generation has.

Today I bid farewell to my painting, Labradorite, my first piece of artwork sold through a gallery! I’m so happy to know it’s in good hands with its new owners amongst the other pieces of art in their beautiful collection. Thank you again Brad and Rebecca!
