Title To Be Determined
Dear Friend,
Marionettes have always fascinated me in my art. I have used them in the past a few times and have a few things in the works to use them again. I love the theatrical aspect of them for one. But the big thing that originally drew me to them was when I was doing a conceptual art project about 4 years ago for a class. I turned myself into a marionette because at that time I was in a place where I felt trapped and felt like I had lost myself and was being controlled as if I was a puppet with someone pulling the strings of every move I made. It was a horrible place to be...and when you are there, it's feels impossible to break away. I know that there are a lot of people out there that can relate to me in some way. There are so many things that can gain control of us if we let them. Peers, school, family, society, jobs, addictions, chocolate, unicorns or chocolate unicorns. Be who you truly are cause that's the best you ever and don't let anyone try to make you into something you are not.
Cheers to the weekend and finals week almost being over! This semester has ended on a great note which is an awesome feeling!
Sincerely,
Angeles
