In this creation, I wanted to bring tech's concept of innovation to the art world. Innovation in tech means adding more utility to what is already out there. In this piece, I added another utility to one-time used plastic wraps to evolve into an art piece.

Barebone. Preparing all the materials needed, the canvas, plaster, plastic wraps, etc.

Layering the plaster as a base layer to add more texture.

Used plastic wraps to give that curtail effect. Layered with plaster for that hard exterior.

Mixing acrylic with plaster for a soft color finish.

This is the finished product.

A suikerspin is the dutch term for cotton candies; it is a simple thing that makes us smile when we were kids. I chose the colors of suikerspin to represent our childhood memories and how we find happiness in simple things.

Now, we have technological advancement and did it make us happy? No, we have a lot more expectations from everyone, life, and the world. This makes everything more complicated and leads to more disappointments. Life is a big irony; there will come a point where everyone will realize that life is always about the simple, joyous moment that makes everything worthwhile. When that moment comes, will it be too late?
