Artist Statement | Final



Here, I wanted to focus on something that's very close to me. For those who know me well, they know that Disney World has always been close to my heart. I have grown up going to Disney since I was basically born and have been brought up loving Disney. This final project I wanted to focus on my personal experiences with Disney and how it makes me feel. 

My first trip was when I wasn't even 1 years old and have been going with my family ever since. I have even done two Disney College Programs working for this company and even part time for a short time frame. Thinking about stress and stress relievers, Disney and going to their parks has always been my stress reliever, you can ask almost anyone in this classroom and they can attest to this. I really wanted to try to portray the feelings I have when I am in Disney and how it has really impacted my life. I think projecting onto my hand made ears, t-shirts, hats, and pins makes this even more personal.

Mine and Eric's project is rightfully titled "First World Problems". While our original project idea was much, much different than what the end product shows, we ran into some "first world problems" and had to readjust our plans and come up with something new.  We are wasteful humans at times and we take many things for granted here, including food. Plenty of food is something that we are privileged to have on a regular basis, yet we continue to take this for granted on many accounts. "First World Problems" is to show that being wasteful and taking things for granted, is indeed a problem we have. While being wasteful ourselves for this project, wasting cereal and milk and water... we have then brought in the extra cereal for everyone to eat and to NOT be wasteful of the leftovers.

Next, you'll want to find the 3 clear push pins that are stuck into the cork board. You're going to take the ears and place them on the push pins so that they are hanging. From left to right, it will be the all white pair, the shiny silver pair, and then the white pair with the purple bow. After that, look for the white hat and hang it off the right corner of the cork board, then find the blue hat and hang it off the left corner of the cork board. Finally, there will be an assortment of t-shirts (3), fold them up by putting in the sleeves of the shirts first, then folding the shirts in half, and then half again, laying them in front of the cork board.  Since the installation is m
