My project was intended to represent the faces and lives of the victims of the tragic high school shooting in Parkland a year ago. This installation, although I would’ve liked to incorporate a bit more complexity/animation to it, was still very effective as its simplicity is less distracting to the viewer and allows them to focus and think more about what the real big message is.

Using projected video and animations, a mirror, some drapes, and a lot of garbage, this is one of my proudest creations of art. This installation was designed and created to serve as a call to action/awareness of the growing disaster that is our home and planet. My main goal behind most of my installations, especially this one, is to make the viewers deliberate and put thoughtful and thorough ideas together based off of whatever ideas or thoughts they may get from viewing my installations. The abstractness of my works is perfect for not directly telling the audience any details, but to give them enough clues to figure it out themselves.

I think that choosing the lizard may have been a little misleading, as not all pets live miserable lives. However, there are tons and tons of animals mistreated, trapped in enclosures way too small for them, and stolen and taken away from their homes/environment. The installation was intended to serve as a setting in which a person/audience can enter a room and first-hand experience being under the circumstances that so many innocent animals are forced into, and better understand/feel sympathy.
