Sustained Investigation Series
"The Future of Humanity"
Description: Earth will come to an end, and we'll settle on Mars. The questions that guide my sustained investigation are "What may occur when planet Earth comes to an end?" and "Since Earth is destroyed, what might change when we settle onto a different planet, such as Mars?" I convey my message by learning various techniques from street artists in New York City or Rome. My sustained investigation shows evidence of practice by the complexity when using a medium that is not the typical acrylic paint, color pencils, and etc.
Reflection: Media largely consists of spray paint and exploring techniques to use it became a challenge throughout the process. One strategy is by using stencils made by hand. As an artist, I grew with more knowledge of the usage of spray paint.
