Within this project I wanted to explore the place inside each and every one of us that seeks more than just materialistic gratification.
Whether we are aware that it exists or not, it is there, a deep burning desire to understand one’s place in the world and to ultimately understand the nature and reason for life itself.
And by our trying to reach this knowledge, uncovering who we are and what it means to be human.
My piece of work entitled: How Can I Change?-‘Essence in a jar’ is my attempt to conceptualise this concept.
I tried to keep an aura of ambiguity with this piece because I don’t like creating pieces of work that are too literal and tell the viewer what they are seeing in front of them. I want the viewer to be able to take as little or as much as they wish from this work as long as they take a second to stop and take in work.
With this piece it is not my intention to try and tell people how they should think or act but rather to provoke thought within the viewer and hopefully make them want to become better versions of the people they are already.
