Title: We are all Tortured artist

 

Artist statement: I believe artist are someone who creates with meaning , this person can be a dancer, singer , song writer/peot , painter and just a normal person that respnds to emotions.Therefore, we all are artists because we all create. This mask was inspired by Jason Silva-youtube video "The Tortured Artist :Can  suffering inspire you?" As artist we take our suffering, our ruins and create beautiful work.As an artists, we did not suffer in vain , we are happy for our suffering . We take our pain and put out positivity in the work. The black eye is an artist suffering eye, the human eye is the creativity transporter .As artists , suffering in our art can heal our scars .

Inspiration from Jason Siliva 

I am choosing this piece because i used different substrate-plaster, this piece helps explain the artist's state -which is linked to their emotional wellbeing. Also, i used different elements to help explain my concept
