The last assessment of my second year at the Art Academy

Works I made for the last assessment. My theme was 'motherhood'. The things I made are very personal, but they were the only things I could do. Because for the last two years now at home we have to deal with a (now) seventeen-year old daughter who thinks her parents are a nuisance. So therefore one of the things I made was a coat with the 'hard' outside of a reptile, but at the same time it's very weak because of the easy ripping of the seams. And the left side, the heart, is in red, so vulnerable.

 A 'torso' with a heart of stone

 On the tea towel I pinned a collage: She had too many ideas for herself


 My apron and an apron I made from my daughters old jeans - tied together for ever. I also attached an old key with a label 'trust' I found somewhere in my stash

This is a happy collage. With red thread I traced my walk through Amsterdam - free to do whatever I wanted, no comments, no judgements

I'm curious to see if next year my feelings and theme will be the same. Actually, I'm hoping for more 'happy collages'.
