senior sem. concept

ok. so we're supposed to post our concepts right? well, i've been wracking my brain with what i could do with horses and still have a pretty solid concept... well after what? several weeks i've managed to come up with absolutely nothing and a horrible headache...
therefore, i'm going to return to my original idea of recycling and reincarnation. :P a tree grows and is cut down, ending that life and brought back as a sheet of paper, beginning another. that sheet of paper is used then discarded, ending that life. I intend to continue the cycle by bringing new life to said discarded paper and bringing it back to the beginning again as a tree. these trees will then illustrate experiences from my own personal life and the relationship between civilization and nature and how the two work with and against each other.

  1. Yay for philosophical themes! I'm excited to see how the trees are going to turn out.

  2. Ashley, I am actually relieved that the horses are a no go, so hard to sidestep the cliche with horses.

    Examine book artists for sure, they do amazing sculptural things with paper.
