Inside Outside: I’m Trapped

For this project the goal was to create something out of soap and try to transform the shape of it. We also needed to incorporate clay to it and make it cohesive in a way that enhanced it without taking over. This piece was very fun and unpredictable. I wasn’t sure what i wanted to create so instead i let soap and tools guide me. I slowly started cutting pieces and eventually led me to this. I also was not sure on how to use the clay to help it stand out, but the end i was very pleased with how it turned out. I did know i wanted to do something interesting with the holes, and love how it came out. The clay seems to be trapping something or someone and it gives me a feeling of suffocation. It remind me of several character in movies, where the villain just wants to rip the soul out of someone.

The cast shadows were fun to explore, with the many holes that were different sizes and shapes.
