Artist's Comments

workshop 2, yesh i was crazy enough to draw on a wall with pencil, took me nearly the whole of my holidays to do this one, what i based the text on was my child experienced racial comments, and the eyes were a self portrait... this work currently measures at least 2.5x4.8 Metres.. roughly..

--Edit---

[link] <--photo of me and friend Rachel (~yellowcherry) standing at the wall! gives u an idea of the size.

i have recieved alot of comments asking how i ended it the rest of the story is here [link]

anywayz.. :strong: Please full view

Following is my artist statement:

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Misconceptions.


“To be successful you must know how to use people, this is how businessmen are able to gain. If only I was educated” - Dad.

People are objects. According to my parents life is hard for those who are uneducated, they are those who live in unfortunate countries and suffer laborious conditions to only be paid little a day. I am fortunate to have the choice and live a system where education is available, but sadly most people do not value this opportunity. With Misconceptions I acknowledge the use of cheap mediums and the amount of labour evident within the work, and through this I hope to have created an appreciation towards products labelled “Made in China”.

WOW WEE! That looks awesome Sin Mae! ANd i even took the time and effort to read the story you wrote on the wall, kinda a sad one, but i guess that's how it is. I never was aware of racial comments.. but i wasn't exactly.. a minority. But as long as you know you're loved now! EVery's sweet! :D! AWesome work though, wish i could see it in person!
