Re-Imagined Self

Project 7 - Digital Imaging

I wanted to continue some of the story of how I am now as a person after the events of my Re-Charted piece. I wanted to work with contrasting sides of hesitation and release. The hesitation side represents the doubt and worry I have in myself and my capabilities and the release side is myself when overcoming a barrier or finding relief. I can flourish and enjoy the good things that come through. The connection between these two sides is a realization, a courage, a step towards goodness away from the worry. This is represented by a looming figure or presence of worry that slowly disappears into the good. This relates to my last piece showing the phone. A lot of the events happened through my phone in messages. Sometimes I didn’t know what the next message was going to be and I was scared of how bad things could get. Sometimes I didn’t even want to pick up my phone or be near it when things were happening. I still can have that hesitation with other things in life where I hesitate doubting and worrying until I take the leap, I open that message and actually see that it was good things and I shouldn’t have had to worry, but I am still learning and growing with this endless loop that someday I might be able to break it.
