My intention is to uncover the eyes of viewers, driving them to acknowledge the\u00a0presence of silence upon their realization of how important is to have a tongue,\u00a0the element that help humans survive and how we cannot take it for granted.\u00a0My piece of work is a way to evoke the visual representation of silencing the
\nvoice and its connotation. It produces a sense of curiosity, and making the\u00a0audience ask these questions: why are the hands paralyzing the tongue? What\u00a0would happen if that voice spoke? Who would be affected if that voice said what\u00a0it has to say? Which is the interest in forcing silence so aggressively? Keeping\u00a0the viewer interested on what it needed to say. Thus allowing viewers to\u00a0visualize the hands holding on to the tongue first conveying that they have the\u00a0power or the authority to order silence, then moving to learning about why that\u00a0symbolizes the presence of absence through understanding the value of\u00a0expressing words and the fleshy organ and its essential functions. The tongue is\u00a0vital for chewing and swallowing food, as well as for speech. Therefore, without it\u00a0we can\u2019t express your emotions trough words or feel any sensations of food or\u00a0affection. I want to challenge the viewpoints of viewers and let them ponder on\u00a0else wise, as is the intended purpose of this body of art.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":8709,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[28],"tags":[84],"class_list":["post-8703","student-work","type-student-work","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-space-materiality","tag-body"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
