New and Improved 100 word description of Art Piece
When thinking of ideas for my project, I knew that I wanted to create something different than a painting or a sculpture and so I had the idea of creating a quilt. Not a big quilt, just something meaningful that represented my resilient people. The quilt has textured fabrics and scents to represent how Helen Keller used her senses of smell and feeling to make up for the fact she couldn’t see and hear. Our quilt ended up focusing on the resilience of Helen Keller whilst the music/spoken word piece focuses on the resilience of Melanie Benn, a woman who has risen from disadvantage when at a 18 months she lost her arms and legs.
