My assemblage sculpture is of a baby head being pierced in the head by glass with hateful and rude words. The baby's head is on a piece of wood painted black with pink, white, and purple flowers. There are words in white on the wood piece that describe the child, but the true words are being covered by blood dripping down the woodblock. This sculpture represents true beauty being hidden away by mean things people say to you, for example, bullying. The idea of my sculpture is that your words hurt more than you think they do. They can damage a person and the way they think of themselves. These insults can start at a young age and ruin the way that a person portrays themselves as they get older. I wanted to startle you by having glass inserted into a baby’s head leaving bruises, dried up blood, and scars. I think I was most successful at expressing my idea in a simple artwork. I thought that it would’ve been a lot harder to create but the idea behind it is a lot deeper than the artwork itself.
