Carrying on from the previous thread, this piece was inspired by Emins Tent, Everybody I Have Every Slept With 1963 - 1995. The seconed part of the project was to create your own work inspired by the artist you looked at. I took on bored the idea of using personal experiance to shock and confront social issues. As a larger person i have always had to deal with being called names, though it's still painful to hear, i have long since come to terms with the fact. In this work i've partially been inspired by that which makes, or what most people believe make us fat. Sweets. I looked at typography and colours of confectionery, both of which are used to grab attention and draw people in. The intension here is to shock.
Materials and techniques used are enamels, stencils, fuseing and sandblasting.
