I created these pieces after losing the life of a family member, I felt disconnected. I liked the idea being able to connected the cords and then take them apart, these are my first pieces with meaning behind them. While I was making this I didn’t like it and to this day I still don’t. I found out that painting on Masonite isn’t for me and it felt flat. I let other things get in the way of neatness, technique and the outcome. 

Not a lot of positive feedback was received. Some people liked my colors and the fact that it was three pieces taken apart. The up-close black sharpie detail caught some people’s eyes.

For the future I don’t want to make any more work like this. I didn’t feel confident about it. I want to experiment with new ways to make art.
