JUNE 2024 MY CHILDHOOD CONSTRUCTION PAPER!
Description: In this collection, the familiar tactile medium of construction paper becomes a canvas for exploration, invoking memories of youthful wonder and boundless imagination. By reclaiming and repurposing construction paper, these works gave me the space to reconnect with my inner child—the part of us that once reveled in the simple joy of cutting and pasting, and the thrill of creating something out of nothing. Celebrate the playful spirit of childhood that lives on through these artworks, and rediscover the magic of construction paper as a medium for expression and exploration. This work compiles fears from my childhood, the innocence bottled up in my younger self, and the pain that comes with growth.
Medium: Ink & pencil on construction paper I kept from my childhood, handmade graphics printed using pen plotter
