  "The souvenir speaks to a context of origin through a language of longing" Experiencing someone is one of the greatest gifts God gave man. But one of the greatest pains is the loss that comes with the knowing someone. Loss can occur by death or the cutting of ties within any kind of relationship. What remains are the memories in your head that slowly begin to fade with the years. But sometimes the process of losing someone is what teaches us to cherish moments we create in the present.

At times it almost feels like people can only talk over the phone. The man in this piece is in distress the blue water is representative of the words he would like to speak but they fall to the ground. He cant get what he wants to say out. The hollowness of his head shows that his head is becoming more and more empty of the things that matter like in person human interaction.  "LOOK" Air dry clay, wood,black paint.  8" x 12" x 4" Eye contact is one of the most important indicators in body language. The way someone looks at you or does not can change a whole conversation or the feeling of it. The eyes on this sculpture are looking in different directions which is representative of what a lot of people's eyes do when they are nervous during conversations. When eye contact is not c...
