My artwork is an interactive piece that aims to bring multiple people together to participate and play with it. The work encourages individuals to sit and interact with the soft objects in front of them. For individuals to truly understand the artwork they must interact with it and immerse themselves into the work. The concept of this artwork is based around a calm playfulness where the viewer is actively making their own choice of how to experience the work. Dealing with extreme anxiety myself, means I need to be conscious about the world around me, I constantly try create soft spaces where I feel I can come and just be free and relax. Life is an experience that you feel. My work aims to give the viewer and opportunity to be calm and enjoy the simple action of play.
