Senior Show Proposal

For my Senior Show I would like to explore the idea of two mediums or color schemes that make one piece. I want to make two identical portraits or pictures of other content and cut the paper into strips on the diagonal. I’ll then take those strips and weave them together to form the final pieces. I plan on doing mostly portraits, but also want to experiment with different subjects.

I picked this theme because I believe everyone is made of many different parts. No one is purely good or evil, stupid or smart etc., everyone has different aspects to their personality. By making the strips different from each other, but still having them fit together to form the person, I am trying to convey that’s its ok to have these apposing feelings inside. It’s the duality of our personalities that make us unique.
