I Wish
Acrylic Spray Paint, 18x22 in
These two artworks symbolize the yearning of familial love. The first silhouette shows a mother and child and this signifies a mother’s love. The second silhouette conveys the picture-perfect image of a happy family. The dream to feel society’s ideal home life can be seen in the silhouettes and how these can be impersonal and vague. Non-specificity reveals the artist’s unfamiliarity with society’s conventions. It depicts the desire of a person to experience what having an ideal family is like.
