how do you really feel about me?

How do you really feel about me? uses the combination of imagery, patterns, fabrics, and text to comment on ideas of self-worth and romanticism. The collaging of these different very soft and elegant elements combined with the movement created from the fabric stiffener to construct waves and creases into the material feels to hold a history. The way each piece floats in the air helps to represent delicacy.


The text pieces ask deep questions in relation to intimacy with another person but are rather rhetorical because I could never realistically deal with the confrontation of asking a question and knowing the answer will never satisfy me enough.
Maybe we could be something, but you will never understand my complexities. Maybe opposites do attract, but don’t I deserve my passion to be reciprocated? I always tend to navigate myself towards the ones that don’t take me seriously. Maybe I subconsciously know it isn’t my time yet, that I shouldn’t force something to be what it isn’t, and that is why we are incompatible. 


These ideas are fixated in my mind. I should focus on myself, my own passions, goals, and ambitions but my mind always circles back around, and I can’t seem to escape it. Maybe it’s me, and I crave to feel some kind of emotion, even if it’s heartbreak.
