My senior thesis blossomed from my original concepts I began to work with when I first joined UNC Pembroke.
Originally, I enjoyed introspective thought and dumping traumas into my work, using art as an escape and a sort of therapy. The problem arose when I was not growing as a person, an artist, nor did my work really have any structure. Moving forward with Warm Bodies, I began to ponder:
When I felt certain emotions, where exactly in my body did I feel them?By identifying where I felt something when experiencing feelings such as sadness, anger, or hurt, I began to sketch different appendages and organs- as well as abstract and often-time electric color schemes or organic shapes to accompany them.Warm Bodies served almost as a farewell to my undergraduate art career, as well as an in-depth analysis of myself, my emotions, my trauma, and how I’ve handled them throughout my past 4 years at UNCP.
