A Connection in Our Lives

A Connection in our lives

This chalk pastel piece was created to show how our childhood and adult lives are connected. The inspiration of this work came from an investigation of how pieces of our childhood symbolizes pieces of our adulthood. Through this investigation, I have discovered how many childhood toys and objects can serve as symbols of our future adult lives. The ring pop, a symbol of childhood, and the wedding ring, a symbol of our adulthood, are linked to show that our childhood and adulthood are always connected, and to show how childhood objects resemble adulthood.
