Objects with a personal meaning
Objects that are important to me, the value they hold, stories they tell.and how I view them.
>Shoes – Gift from my aunt, perfect companion traveling different terrains of life. While wearing them, I am not only experiencing the places I visit but also leave a footprint, both literal and figurative.
Headphones – auditory experience. Observation through music, through sound, through voices.
>Plushie, a personal gift from a dear friend – Connection with friends, hand-made, reminder that there are people who are waiting for me back home. It was made with the intent to portray how she sees me and compares it to a cat.
>Glasses – Lets me observe the world and surroundings, see things as they are, or as they could be.
>Backpack – security/emergency bag. It is a trusty companion in my day-to-day life. It pockets everything I need when I leave my comfort space – home. It carries things I need and sometimes I forget about them being there. That is why it’s always ready to provide me with the required gear.
>Hands – they are not only the primary way to express my creativity but also a connection to the world through touch. They let you feel and experience the world, not only observe it. Touches, hugs, holds are shared connections and support for the people involved.
