exploration

With this exploration I made my own little twist on  exploration 16 where you come up with a set of questions and survey a bunch of people. Instead I had one generalized question / statement: What / How do you truly feel about me as and individual. The good. The bad. The ugly. I then created an anonymous email account where people can log in and email me their response so I would have no idea as to who sent me what. 

Sorting through each statement I picked out some of the more interesting attributes that were suggested. I then wrote each down on its own index card, and tried to illustrate with the text the word. So with shy I made it smaller and in one corner of the page. I tried to make the word funny look fun and 3 dimensional, and with the term lazy I wanted to do something simple and boring. Then I set each index card up on a mirror with sticky tack and took photos of them with my self in the background. With some of these I also tried to illustrate my image like how I made it so the shy card was in front of my mouth and you could see the rest of my face to show the lack of speech. I also raised my eyebrows with the card funny to emphasize the statement.

With each of these definitions I have already started to make a connection between what people think of me and who I am. I feel like this was a good start on the process of creating my book. I was able to receive good and bad attributes from people which really helped; especially with this exploration; to make connections between my ideas.
