| dc.description.abstract | This practice-led project reflects on my coming of age online and other anxieties. Through a ceramic sculptural practice, I look back on past formative moments and feelings, and create objects that represent or express parts of my life from ages 10-20. I make objects that are recognisable, commemorative, and emotional. I am fascinated by how much I am influenced by being online; it shapes my feelings about myself and how I think about others. Being locked into self-reflection cycles aided by this digital record brings embarrassment and anxiety. While analysing these moments and setting the feelings in stone (as such) with my making, I am faced with the prospect that soon enough, I will feel the same way about myself right now as I did in the past. By investigating these insecure tendencies, I want to understand how they influence my making in sculptural practice. | |
