All In My Head
The concept of this sculpture is based on the theme
‘Nirvana’, which I followed through out my two years of high school. The
glazed, marbled hemisphere with a hole on top goes on top of the paper mache
sculptures. In my culture, the philosophy of the physical structure of a human
being created by clay is very common hence I used two different clays and gave
it a marble effect to represent the good and the bad and how we, humans are
made of both. The paper mache sculptures represent the 7 deadly sins found in
the world’s major religions. Through this piece of work I wanted to represent
how it plays with ones consciousness. They are all expressed with euphoric appearances,
as most people tend to hide much of their actions through their expression of
joy. The head itself is placed in the middle represents ones consciousness and
it is surrounded by representations of the 7 deadly sins which include; pride,
envy, gluttony, lust, anger/wrath, sloth and greed.
