For this assignment, I had to create a container using wood that held an object, concept, or memory that is special to me. I chose to explore the concept of feelings and how people contain their emotions to either protect themselves or the people around them. To showcase this idea, I created a medicine box, each section with an emotion assigned to it, which I filled with pills as a metaphor for how feelings, similar to drugs, can be healing yet damaging to one\u2019s health. To further elaborate on the theme of emotions, I decided to laser engrave the words of a short story about the ups-and-downs of a relationship, which I wrote in a previous class. I purposely altered the size of certain words to put emphasis on the connotation which those words have, as well as to draw my audience in.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":17682,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[28],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-17677","student-work","type-student-work","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-space-materiality"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
